    Hi,

    I have an external hard drive - Seagate Portable FreeAgent Go! 250gb USB 2.0. Since my Desktop PC is blocked by administrator, I tried to install games on my external HDD instead but received a pop up which says I have been blocked by administrator and would I like to Cancel or proceed with installation.

    After clicking yes to proceed, then it will come to a section on where you would prefer to install the game. I clicked on the external HDD but a pop-up window states there has been an error with uninstall, etc..

    Could someone help me with this please :) Much appreciated! :D

    aLLiKZar It's not too late to back out!

    If the machine is blocked by an admin you wont be able to install programs without being the admin. Installing them on a external HDD most likely will not work as well. You will need admin rights in order to install.
