I'd suggest reading the AO Beginner's Guide that comes with the game when you download it.

Does it say anything in there about the path or something like that? Cause i think thats what I need, no experance in torrents at all (not sure what it is lol)

I'm not sure if I got this right, but you appeared to have only downloaded torrent itself, not actuall game. If thats true, you also need some program (like bittorrent, bitcomet, azure,....), with help of which you download game.

If Im wrong (probably are), you might want to explain the nature of your problem a bit more in detail.

Yeah your right (figured it out last night) but there is still a problem, the game just wouldnt start (no picture on the screen) eh might not have been patient enough. Hoping its not because I dont have the right vid card!

Ok, first of all, you need an account. You can create one over here https://register.funcom.com/, on right side of page. Er, scratch that, blank page means you're past this stage.

Ok, other stuff...let's see...if you create new char, you should watch about 45s of boarding animation, then go to char creation itself and finally loading of game (takes about 30s, but really depends on your computer).

If you already have char and only see that logo on the screen when loading (and never finishing), you might be in crash loop. Log in different char (or create new one) and petition about it.
