Install game on flash drive?

[ddrrbb]

Is it possible to install the game and keep the license info on a flash drive? I spend a fair amount of time away from home (GF's house, friend's houses), and I don't have my own laptop. Can I just move the elicense folder to my flash drive, and the game will work wherever I plug in? Anyone have any experience or knowledge of how this works?

My guess is won't work as that could be a very easy way to get around licensing. I'm sure the folks at elicense have security measures in place to prevent such practices...but, I could very well be wrong as I've never tried to do it.

But, instead, why not just install the game on any computer you use...takes all of a minute provided you have the install on your flash drive...keep a copy of whatever league(s) you want on your flash drive...and just remember to unlicense the game everytime you're done playing it.

If the flash drive is large enough you should be able to load Windows on it and make it a boot disk, then install the game and your league files. Reboot the system with the drive plugged in and the system should boot straight to the flash drive.

I know several people that do that with Windows so they have a "portable" computer able to use anyplace on any system.

If you have an extra copy of XP it should work.

Good Luck,
