 + 
 +{{:blog:crusader-install-1-select-destination.png?640|}} 
 + 
 +I only have a single hard drive/partition, so only the drive letter //A:// appears in my option, along with the right-most option to //return// to the previous menu. 
 + 
 +**Step 3.** On confirming the destination drive, you are given the ability to choose a folder or sub-folder for the game:

 +{{:blog:crusader-install-2-choose-location.png?640|}} 
 + 
 +You can use the simple directory browser to navigate to a custom location, or accept the default, which is to create the folder //LC// (Last Crusader) in the root of the drive.
