Those specs are fine for the game.

Just to make sure, you do have an internet connection on the computer you're trying to play this on right?

If so, is it connected directly to the modem or going through the router?

Only way you could post video's would be to host them on an external site and post a link here. (eg. youtube or rapidshare etc) What exactly did you want to post the vid of?

It could be, yes. Have a look at the AV to see if it's blocking the game.

Easy way to test it would be to disable it and then try to install the game again.
