Can DW be played from a thumb drive?
I'd like to load it on my work laptop for trips away, but I can't install it on the hard drive.

You can install it pretty much anywhere you want. But the computer you are playing it on needs to have some registry keys with the proper folder locations if I remember correctly. So if that is a different pc than initially installed on then you need to transfer/add those keys to the other pc.

If it's a matter of space you can install steam and move DW over to the thumb drive and link it with mklink.
LinK187 (post #7) has a nice easy guide on that over on the steam forums. http://forums.steampowered.com/forum...d.php?t=664376 Quote:
EDIT PT2: With the steam version, removing the registry keys entirely seems to have no effect. I'm running the game off an external hard drive as it is, so you may be able to get the game running without the keys too. I've lost my retail disks though so I can't say whether or not it'll work with them. I can't imagine it would hurt to try. |
