If you have already read some other articles offered on our site, you should know that there are two basic types of casino online software. There are download and no-download casinos. To play in no-download casinos you just need to enter the gambling site and enable flash in your web browser. To play in a download casino you need to download and install a special casino online software on your hard drive. This process is usually really easy and understandable, however beginners can come across some problems. In this article we are going to the describe the whole process step by step.
Step one
The most important thing for players is to download a casino software only from reliable and reputable gambling sites. Largest software providers like Microgaming, Playtech and Cryptologic give players an opportunity to download it absolutely free of charge. Remember that you should always have your anti-virus program enabled before downloading any files from Internet. Otherwise, you can accidentally infect your PC with any spyware or malware.
Step Two
Having chosen a suitable online casino software and site to download it from, you should select a location in which the installation file will be saved. You can choose any folder you like or a desktop. However, there are some cases when players just cannot remember what location they chose. Then you should go to the ‘start’ menu and select a ‘find’ option. Enter the name of the installation file there ( remember that it will also have an .exe extension). If you don’t remember the name, check it out on the site you have downloaded it from.
Step Three
Having found an installation file you can double-click it to launch the installation wizard. This wizard will direct you through the whole installation process of casino software. Don’t be surprised if additional downloading of files begins. Usually it doesn’t take much time.
Step Four
During an installation process you will be asked to choose a folder where this casino software will be installed. You have several options for it:
* Save it in the same location where an installation file is saved
* Stick to the default destination
* Save it in a new folder that you can name after your gambling site
To select a new location press a ‘Browse’ button. Pressing ‘Install’ will install the program to the default folder.
Step Five
Having chosen a folder you can press an ‘Install’ button that triggers the installation process. On this stage you can just wait, wait and wait. The whole process won’t take much time.
Step Six
After the installation process is over you will see a page saying ‘The User Agreement’. Most gamblers usually skip this stage and press an ‘Agree’ button without reading it. However, we do strongly recommend you to read the whole Agreement carefully and thoughtfully as it reveals the main casino’s rights and responsibilities. Large gambling sites should guarantee that your personal information will be not revealed to third parties and that you will have somebody to turn to in case some problems and disputes occur.
Step Seven
Having signed ‘The User Agreement’ you can be whether transferred to the casino’s lobby or asked to double-click the launch icon. In the casino’s lobby players are usually required to select whether gambling for real money or a Free mode. If you have never gambled online before, you are strongly recommended to go for a Fun Mode during the first time to grow familiar with the interface, rules and features of various games.
Step Eight
The next steps will depend greatly on what mode of gambling you selected. To play in a Fun Mode you should just fill a short form providing some personal information. To play for real money you will have to fulfill a longer form consisting of several pages. It will include your deposit method, personal details, banking information and so on.
Having completed all these steps carefully you will be able to enjoy all your favourite casino games right on your PC.
