Question about Networking

Post by The Kizzy »

If someone on my network (roommate) installs EQ2 on her computer (that has a DVD drive) can she put it under the shared thing for me to put on my computer?

If she shares the cd drive, then yes you would be able to install off that drive.

I think thats what you were asking.

I think she is asking:
She has a dvd copy of eq2. Her roommate has the drive, she does not. Can her roommate install EQ2 on her computer and put it in a shared folder and then Kizzy can copy the folder on her computer, giving her EQ2.


Right?

That works also, you can copy over the installed directory to your computer and should be able to run it without a problem.
