Avoid using CDs while playing your favorate video games.

The Windows computer version of the popular Grand Theft Auto IV is the only gaming platform that uses a CD during gameplay (the PlayStation version uses a DVD). However, if you are on the go or just don't like switching in game CDs into a computer constantly there is a way to actually play the Grand Theft Auto IV video game without the CD. You just need to adjust how you install the game onto your computer.

      Select "Install" from the list of options, and the Grand Theft Auto IV installation wizard loads onto the screen.

      Choose "Complete" install when asked what form of installation you want. A complete install tells the computer to import all data necessary for the game from the CD. Selecting one of the other options forces you to use the CD during game play (however the installation size is smaller).
