Not sure exactly what you mean? you mean install it on another machine and play it from a different machine?
If so, yes it is possible, but you need some software to do it, and im not sure that software is cheap. |

You would need the registry entries, otherwise some things may not work properly,
Be better to install it on the other machine using the cd/dvd |

How come it works on some games i tried like unreal tournament 2004 and warcraft 3.

some games do not require anything in the registry to get file paths, and some games read entires in the registry to get where their files are located.
Some use relative path, such as ./pathtofolder or ../pathtofolder, ect.. instead of absolute such as c:\games\ut2004\pathtofolder So not all games will work without the reg entries. If you know how to use regedit, you can however export the paths. |

Cause these games doesnt require registry values.
If u open regedit and you search for Rockstar u will find the max payne registry value.Then u export that and you run it to the other pc. |

ya, but its better to leave the registry alone if you do not know how to use it, a "newbie" can easily delete something with the press of a button and render his OS broken.
I realize it is unlikely, unless the person is just not paying attention, but seriously, And no need to search, most reg entries for a game are located in HK local machine\software\(gamedeveloper) or hk current user\software\(gamedeveloper) just like browsing folders, and would be quicker to just browse to those locations and check. |

I copied the program files of age of mythology, swat 4 and max payne 2 and they all worked without editing the regisrty.
