My sister is getting a nice laptop for Christmas. She wants to take BF2142 and GW with her to college. So instead of re-installing, I was hoping I could just link the two computers together and transer the files directly from my V64 rig to her V32. Is that possible, or is re-installing a better option. Oh, and is there a way to transfer between the two without setting up a new Network or whatever. Or should I just spend some more money and upgrade her computer from Vista32 to 64 as soon as we get it (It's en route as we speak).
I have an OEM copy of Vista64 that's on my rig. Can I legally install that on her computer?
I've only installed it twice on mine (1 reformat).

Thanks all. Merry Christmas.

---> you might be able to reinstall the game on her new PC, then copy the game folder from your PC to her PC

----> you can use a USB drive to copy files, otherwise the only other options are taking the drive out of her laptop and connecting it to your desktop, then copy files, or use a network.

-----> one install per license, plus, OEM is tied to the original mobo...yours
