elmos site mentions that the game can be installed on any harddrive but i
remember in the past Ive had games that would get angry if I did not
install them in the program files directory on the main drive C

take that as an option if your in the right place on the zone and it wont
let you because of it being on a D-Z drive.

also as far as patches, on age of empires I've been able to get right into a
game room ( with the program started) and then it would say nope "you need a
patch" ,so a patch hasnt kept me out of a game, just from playing it.

hope my info helps as well
