    The thing you can try to do is to install the client on the new machine, and then copy the DSOClient folder from the other machine to the new one.
    But it may not work, since the systems may differ and need different resources downloaded.
    But you're free to try, so that would mean that you have to copy the client installer and the DSOClient folder on the usb. That folder is found in \Temp\DSOClient, if you use Windows type %temp% in run, and you need to paste it in the same Temp folder, and also , you should beware that some maintenance programs may delete the files from the temp folder, so it's always good to have a backup of the DSOClient folder.
    I wish you good luck.
    Cheers!

    If you want just ask and I can create a batch file for you to copy all the DSO from the flash to the target computer.

    Have the installer on the flash drive also for the game.

    Well windows does not work like that. In fact only know of linux.

    You will have to install the game and this will copy you files from the USB storage.

    make a batch file and place it on the root of you flash drive. Run it from there.

    Code:
    copy /Y DSOClient %temp%

    I don't think you can install it on usb. If it were a portable game... keep dreaming, when you install the game you can't even choose the install path.
    So your best choice is to do what I previously said.
