[quote who="psychoak" reply="17" id="3604777"] Copying your install directory and manually editing the registry to make your install function properly depending on the game, isn't something any ol' computer illiterate moron can do themselves. I can't tell you how many times someone has been unable to do so simple a task as to set up a Sins mod, it's beyond a great many people.

I have to use free wireless hot spots to check the net. Now I looked around ad I dont see a place to dowload the patches by them selves. Since I cant use impulse on my desktop I cant update through there. I was wondering if I installed the game onto my laptop from the disc then updated through Impulse, would I be able to copy the files from my lapt
