Title: How to copy Machinarium to discs?
Post by: kenritz on December 17, 2009, 11:33:06 pm
Can someone please tell me how to copy " Machinarium " to a disc?  My PC does`nt have a lot of memory, and I thought that by putting it on disc might help it along a little.

Please remember I`m not PC savvy :-X, so make it easy for me ! ;D

                Thanking you for your kind help!

                                     Kenritz ;D

Only up to level 2, but there`s a genuine smile on my face playing Machinarium! ;D

                  Best damned game since  "Super Mario Bros." ;)

Hi Ken.  Actually playing the game directly from your hard drive would be preferable to playing it off a disk.  The read/write capability of your HD is *MUCH* faster than the read/write mechanism in your CD reader/player.

When you say that your PC doesn't have a lot of memory how much, exactly, are you talking about?  Give us your specs; processor speed, quantity of RAM, color of the case...  naw, just kidding there.  :D   But what seems to be the problem?  Are you experiencing "herkey jerky" animation or what?

Hello ABoretz!  Thank you for responding to my plea for help! ;D  I`ll put in my spec`s below. As of now I don`t have a problem.....yet!   But I`m kind of worried about the proverbial "Sword of Damocles" that may come down and bite me on the arse! :D   I`m 60 yrs.old, and you know what they say about "Old Dog`s"! :D So most of my computer experience is limited to what i can figure out on my own, I thank you for taking me under your wing and helping! ;D

                                  Thanks again ABoretz!  ;)              Whats the "A" stand for?  My names Kenny! ;D

Don't worry, Kenny.  Your system specs (while at the bare minimum RAM-wise) should serve you well.
Just keep in mind to never... AAAck!!
