Windows XP doesn't use a C:\ProgramFiles(x86) Folder and games usually install to C:\ProgramFiles. Much easier to handle than the latest Windows systems 7 & 8.

Never, and I mean NEVER, install a game in Win7 or Win8 "Program Files..." folder. I have all my games in C:\Games\. Starting with Win7, MSft does wierd things to stuff in "Program Files" to help protect us from ourselves. Many games need to write/create/update config and log files, but the controls MSft introduced starting with Win7 makes it very problematic if the app is installed in there.
