    Changing Installation Directory

    I'm trying to re-install Morrowind to my second hard drive which is labeled G:, and G: is where the CD is defaulting the installation to. The problem is that I want the game files to be under G:\Morrowind and I can not figure out how to point the install to do this. It doesn't give me a choice by going through the CD's setup and I was wondering if there was some run command I could use to point the install in the right direction. Anybody think they can help?

    You know what? I don't know. It doesn't have a readme or anything. :/

      This is really starting to get annoying now.

        A: This is a problem that involves editing the System Registry. The Registry is a very sensitive part of Windows and removing or editing the wrong value can cause problems. Please call technical support at 1 410 568 3685. A senior technician will walk you through the procedure.

          I hate calling tech support so I decided to dig through regedit myself and found the registry setting pointing it to G:

          I was able to get it installed correctly now, but that was pretty ridiculous that I would have to actually go through the registry settings just to change an installation path.

          Thanks for the link Immortius!

            Try this, drop it into your morrowind directory and run it
            ..it's safer here.
