    Do you have a CD or DVD burner?


    If so, that's about your only option..

    Here's a great tutorial for burning CD's within XP.

    http://dallas.tamu.edu/e-learn/WinXP-CD_Burn.html
    At one point you'll be asked to 'drag and drop' the folders the folders you want to burn onto CD. This is all explained at the website above...They're typically in "C:\program files\casinoname". I've seen some install themselves to C:\casino\casinoname.


    Edit: This could also be done with a Zip drive, assuming the casino directories are < 100mb or 250, depending on the Zip drive you have....You could probably fit 2+ casinos on each disc using this method.


    Edit: There's also another alternative to do what you're looking for, instead of formatting and losing all of your programs.

    You'd go through the install process as normal, and when it finds your current windows installation it will ask you if you want to install a new copy of windows and delete the old copy. This is the option you want to use.

    This will delete all the system files, the old registry, etc. You'll still need to reinstall most programs: IE: Office and the sort, but as far as the casinos go, you can just run them without doing a thing.

    Whichever way you choose, you need to make sure you have a copy of your account numbers and passwords. They'll all be gone once you reinstall.

    Last edit: Unfortunately, if you're using a recovery disc that came with your computer, you will lose everything on the drive once the recovery program starts. You'll definately need to copy everything over if this is the case.

    Operators: If you don't know what Transparency means, then here you go.....now how about practicing it?

    Transparency, as used in the humanities and in a social context more generally, implies openness, communication, and accountability. It is a metaphorical extension of the meaning a "transparent" object is one that can be seen through. ...

    well

    What you need to burn is only the setup files, which most of the time they require little space.

    Once you run them, they go to the Casino Server and the installation is made online. Thats why some times when you open your casino software it will auto upgrade. Most poker softwares work like this.

    My advise, get cable or dsl my friend.

    The big picture here is burning everything so she won't have to download it all again. If she just burns the setup files, she can't achieve that goal
