Do you have a drive letter assigned to the pen drive? If so, and it stays constant, just run through the install and set the install directory to whatever drive letter is assigned.

It should work. Keep in mind, you won't be able to just move it from one computer to another and have it work since files are written to the HDD and entries made in the Registry when software is installed.

Just wondering why you want to do this....

Life's more painless for the brainless.
