I have a Halo Combat Evolved disc. Is it possible to copy the files to a USB so I can play Halo wherever I want without carrying my CD case?

Yes, you can on Windows!

, this is very important.1.09
removes SafeDisc and the CD-check.regedit
, export the proper key for your OS:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo
.reg
file onto the USB stick.Wow6432Node
in this copy so that you have one of each.Now, when you want to play, you will need to do the following.
.reg
file in Notepad. This will be the one withWow6432Node
for 64-bit systems, and without it for 32-bit systems..reg
file, change theEXE Path
value to the proper USB path (this may change depending on what drive letter you get when you plug in in, hence the need to change it)..reg
file into the Registry.redist\msxmlenu.msi
from the Halo directory. (If this isn't installed already, you will have issues with the chat UI disappearing).When you are done, you will need to open
regedit
and delete the registry key you imported before you started playing (if you forget where to find it, look at the paths back in the first section). This registry key contains your CD key, and you don't want to leave that lying around. :)
