    Ok I am trying to install sims 3 onto my m11x. The problem is that my external disc drive I just got in appears to not work at all. It shows up and everything fine, but never shows that there is a disc in it at all. I was wondering if I would be able to install this and some other games to my external hard drive and be able to play them that way. If so can you tell me the steps because I can not get most of the games to load their launcher that way.

    Thanks in advance ---- also I do not know what kind of external disc drive it was. It was something off of amazon probably cheap....
