Please splan dis to me

Seriously, wouldn’t it be more efficient to just adjust the NTFS permissions for the specific folders used by the games. Keeping in mind that XP handles them differently than 2K.

I dont know. Ive only looked at NTFS permissions in affecting access and security. I didnt know there were options for file system formats. I know there are settings for things like "run as if Win95" but that only goes so far. With some older games they just hate NTFS.

Can you change the file structure of a folder after an install? That would surprise me. If I have to install it twice then its about the same as what Im using.
