    [Simple] Install WoW (WotLK) ALOT faster.

    This is probably the most simplest thing you could ever think of, but yet, people are complaining (ON WoW forums) that their WotLK takes ages to install.

    Here's the trick.
    Copy files from disk onto hard-drive. Then Install.

    Thanks EcHoEs, that's pretty much what I'm saying.

    Right, forgot to mention, DON'T LURK.

    How much faster will it be?
    Like a huge boost, or just a couple of minutes?

    So there's only one cd?
    Sorry, I'm still waiting for my copy.
    And if there are multiple Disks,
    do I just copy them to the Desktop
    one at a time?

    Edit: I like your "Don't Lurk" Motto.
    Yet your sig is asking for rep in a way

    Believe me, copying it to your hard drive, then installing will save LOTS of time.

    If theres 4 disks, copy InstallerTome#.mpq to a location, # ranges from 1-4.
    Then find the Installer.exe, normally on 1st disk, and run that after copying it over.

    Lol I installed wrath from dvd in 10 mins.
    Look at your post, now back to mine; Now back to your post, now back to mine. Sadly, it isn't mine, but if you stopped trolling and started posting legitimate content, it could look like mine. Look down, backup, where are you? You're scrolling through threads, reading the post your post could look like. What did you post? Back at mine; It's a reply saying something you want to hear. Look again and the reply is now diamonds.

    Anything is possible when you think before you post. The moon is shrinking.
