Strat -

As Noel stated, you need to decide how you want to run BIAB. Assuming that you already have BIAB installed on your computer and want to keep doing that, then just tell the installer that's what you want to do. You'll only need to know where BIAB (and RealBand) is currently installed, as well as where RealTracks and RealDrums are installed (assuming you may have installed them to a different folder and/or drive. Once you have this information, just point the installer to the same locations and do the install.

If you instead decide you want to run the program from your computer's hard drive, but keep RealTracks and RealDrums on the USB hard drive that you received, then you can choose that as well; however, if you have any bonus paks from previous versions you want to keep, it becomes a little more tricky to update those (doable, but you need to be careful not to overwrite any of the new files).

If you want to run the entire program from the USB drive, you can do that, but you still need to run the installation utility so that fonts get properly installed on your computer, but the files will all remain on the USB drive. That's the quickest install. However, again, if there are any legacy styles, RealTracks, and RealDrums you want to keep (that may have been a part of bonus paks not present in the new version), then syncing them up will be more difficult. Doable, but still tricky.

Don't know if that helps any; you'll see what your options are when you receive the USB drive.
