Can you explain the reasoning here? My past experience generically (i.e. in general, not the SH series) is that installing a game anyplace besides the default often causes trouble later (e.g. patches won;t install right, etc...).

My SHIV is installed in tne root directory -C:- as I presume many here have theirs, and I haven't had any problem installing patches or mods....(knock on wood...).

The above suggestion about installing SHIV directly to the C: drive instead of it's default setting is mostly aimed at Vista users. For some reason installing SHIV to the default location causes problems and installing the SHIV directly to C: drive eliminates these problems. Don't know the reasons, but have seen it happen.
