Hey so I just fresh installed win 7 on a 120gb ssd and I want to store things on my HDD but open them while using my ssd. So basically I can put some games on my ssd but not all games will fit at least I assume so I want some space on the ssd. Is there anyway to install on the HDD but be able to open in the ssd?
Where you install something has no effect on whether you can use not or not. So if you SSD is C: and you install games on D: then yes, you can use them while booted from C:
It sounds like you want to install items on your hard drive, but have them accessed by the SSD. Well, your programs have to be installed on the SSD to take advantage of the the SSD's faster load times.
Well the load time don't matter for every single game but yes so how do I access games on my HDD that aren't installed on my ssd recently installed a new ssd and want to use the installed games from my old hdd
No its mostly separate applications, I got 3 on origin and the rest are separate
Many game programs install a game folder called "My Games" into the "My Documents" folder.
For applicable games, you can install the games onto the SSD, begin game play, save your settings, and exit the game.
This should create a My Games folder on the SSD.
You can then delete the contents for the applicable game in the My Games folder on the SSD and replace it with the exact contents from the HDD.
Provided you did this correctly, you should be able to resume the game from the point that was saved to the HDD.
