since u are new, I know that feeling cuz I had it once

so focus on what Im going to say right now

-to know ur OS bit, just right click on My computer and U should know

-you got the launcher , just install it in ur system, and then choose the unreal version to download

-then after u downloaded it, I highly recommending to watch some Awesome tutorials from Epic games that will teach u how to master this power tool starting with this one:

I checked my system and its 32 bit. Also i dont think my computer is NEARLY fast enough to handle much of anything. With 3 gigs of ram and a AMD C-50 Processor runing at 1.00 GHz
