Having played the BG's gives you a good overall understanding of some of the concepts of D&D. You shouldn't have any problems grasping the finer points of PnP. The key is to get into a game with a good DM, and a patient group. This is invaluable as they will help you understand what is going on and what to do. This is truly the best way to learn to play D&D. The first thing I would do is go to a book store and purchase the PHB for the version that you want to play and read it. Then look for a game in your area that you can join.
