cant install game on D: drive
I have a dual boot system with 1 boot on C: and 1 on D: drive. each drive
is locked out from the other so if for instance the D: boot wants to copy a file to the C: drive -- not allowed. C: cant copy to D: either. ( I do this so each boot can be independent and not affect the other) Anyway, I am trying to install a game on the D: boot, but it wants to copy files to c:\windows but it cant so the game wont install. Does anyone know how to set some switches or something so that the game will know that it has to install on the operating system that is currently running? Thank You Kevin
