So my C drive is running out of space but my second hard drive, F, has tons of it. To make some room on C I want to move my Solecismic folder over to F (that'll open up over a gig of room). If I copy the Solecismic folder over to F and delete it from C, will FOF still work as is or do I need to uninstall FOF and re-install it on my F drive?

Also, I want to go ahead and uninstall OOTP from my F drive since I never play it any more, but when I try to do that I get "Could not open INSTALL.LOG file." Anyone know why I'm getting that message and what I would have to do to fix it?

Thanks in advance...

Re: FOF ... you have to uninstall/reinstall.

Re: OOTP ... no clue.

Re: FOF ... you have to uninstall/reinstall.


Cool. But I'm guessing that when I reinstall on the F drive that it would overwrite the FOF folder I have there now. Is it safe to stash a copy elsewhere and then use it to replace the new folder after the install?

Install FOF to your F drive then move your league and universe folders from C: to F:

the INSTALL.LOG file is a log of the files OOTP has installed. Its used as a reference for the uninstaller. Without it, you cant uninstall with the provided uninstaller. It would be perfectly ok to just delete your OOTP directory though, nothing bad can happen.

Burn all the porn to a CD rom. Should free you up a couple gigs there easily.

If you are worried about freeing up only 1 gig you have enough other problems to deal with...

Thanks for the answers, fellas. I've got FOF moved over and now have some free space on C. Hopefully the computer will quit bitching at me about low space now...
