the CD-Keys that come with MMO software allow you to make 1 account to play
the game, You can install and run the game on any computer, but you can only
login to the game with that 1 account. In other words you can't use the
CD-Key a second time to make nother game account.

In other words, you have to purchase your own copy of LotRO to make an
account. Once you have an account, you can start the game, login, and the
game will patch and play OK under Vista.

If you want to "test" your game, have your brother login with his account
username and password, once the software is installed, that should patch the
game and start up at least you know the game will run on your system.

p.s.-god I confused myself that time.
