How to Create a WoW Installer
Running into World of Warcraft installation problems is frustrating, particularly if you are trying to meet your fellow guild members for a raid. Damaged CDs are a common cause of troubles with installation. Luckily, there is a way to create a manual installation folder on your hard drive that will allow you to install the game without running the CDs. You will still need the product key included with the CDs for the game to install properly.
