loading Myth from cd into non-cd computer

Post by gkargreen »

Hello again, I have the Myth warchest from several years back, and want to load the windoze version onto my Acer laptop. The laptop does not have an optical drive, and I don't have access to an external drive. I do have access to another win machine with a drive, is there some way I can get the files from the optical drive onto a USB stick and install onto my cd driveless machine? thanks

Yes there is. There are two ways you can do this.

Install it on the computer with a CD drive and copy that folder and the latest update into your USB drive. Then place the Myth folder into the laptop and run the update.

The other way would be if you made a CD image of the Myth CD. And ran it in the laptop using a virtual CD drive and then update. Whichever is fine.
