I recently bought GTA :San Andreas and want to install it onto my portable hard drive. The problem is that I move the hard drive around and the computers that I use assign different letters to the drive. Because of this, I don't think that the game will work on those computers. Is there a way of removing all the drive references and replace them with the names of the current computer? If not, I will return it (unopened) and buy something else.

Open Device Manager, click on the plus sign, next to the driver, and then open the properties, and click on the "settings" tab, go down and set the driver to the letter you want. That is what I did with my Flashdrive.

Yes, I do this all the time. 7200 rpm is a good speed. When installing, the game setup will ask you where to install the game, just choose the portable hard drive.

that would not work. programs are installed into the registry of each machine. u cannot just install the game onto an external hd and bring it around to computers without it having been installed. if ur trying to save space that is the dumbest solution ive heard
