I was wondering if its possible to put Baseball Mogul 2005 on a floppy disk because I wanna play it during school. I tried it myself already but it said "Baseball Mogul could not find all needed files. To install the Baseball Mogul 2005 Patch, please copy the bbm2k5.exe file into your baseball mogul installation before you attempt to run the program.
(Version 714)"
I know i wont be able to fit the files all on one floppy so i plan to seprate the files and put them on different floppy disks. So, what files would i need to make it run but not take up that much space?
I know i could play the game without using the sounds and player photos but iam not sure what else.
EDIT: If this violates the license agreemant by copying it onto a disk iam sorry and i will not try to do this.

A cd would not work because my school doesnt allow us to download things onto the computer.

I play on both my laptop and desktop, and transferring files is a pain, so now I just keep all of the files on my flash drive.
Now I just have to make sure I don't lose it.:eek:

I keep everything on my flash drive, so it comes to about 61 MB. (The Lahman database alone is over 26 MB.) You could get by with just a 64 MB drive, but I found that once I started using it, I never wanted to mess with floppies again.
Thus, my recommendation is to go for a 128 MB drive, since you'll probably be saving a lot of school stuff to it also. You can get one for under $30.
