I've got a left over SSD, can I put the game on it? or does it have to be(c") drive?
-
yes you can, just change the install directory to your SSD drive.
-
Can even have more than 1 instance.
Example Player A stick setup on Drive C, and Player B setup on drive D with different sticks, settings, etc.

Can I just click and drag game to diff HDD? and where are the install directory's located? just type that in serch box? and how many do you think there are?

if will have to go into the registry and change the drive location for that program and anything else that may point to the directory. for that to work. the answer is yes but may not be worth the effort when you can just reinstall it and let the program do it for you. and data or settings can be copied over from the old directory usually provided they dont have anything pointing to the old install directory in them.

Simple way to move it.
Install a new copy of where you want the game to be. After installation, copy the old installation over the top of the new installation.
Done.

thanx guy's! I'll try it tonite and let ya know tomorrow how it comes out! sound's like I won't lose any skin's or stick setting's Skuzzy's way!

You need to actually install it or the new one won't have the windows registry info etc it needs to run.
Once installed then copy paste settings, terrains etc.

Man! you would not belive what I had to do to get get this going! Not as far as relocating the game, but setting up the used SSD!
Those thing's are fast as Sh$#! but are a pain! It came out of a RAID-0 that went sour, so it was formatted for that, I was wanting to strip (erase) reset them for this, Intel ToolBox would'nt touch it! said it was partitioned, found some software to use with (DOS) really! Cmon, another was for formatting in BIOS, Dadburn, back in time, but I did find out how to strip em clean for reuse, I mean (wiped clean) While Intel ToolBox is running, cycle power to SSD! that was easy enough, too easy! Back to the ToolBox, It still would'nt touch it! that little trick cleared out EVERYTHING! Partitions were gone! ToolBox would see the SSD but not windows, SOoo,I did'nt want them to go to waste, loaded Windows7, intel ToolBox, and AcesHigh on the SSD, and is in local disk (F)! but now it is TRIM sopported, every few week's I'll just change BOOT order in BIO's and let TRIM run to keep thing's clean!
