Alright my laptop has two drives C and D. I have halo ce installed on the D drive but HEK does not seem to pick it up, I think it only scans the C drive, is there anyway to make it work??

Your registry probably does not state that Halo CE is installed on your computer. <--- Dont need to understand don't worry.
Go to control panel, add or remove programs and check if Halo CE is on the list. Also make sure that Halo CE was properly installedm not copy/paste from a another computer |

its not impossible to install halo into d drive. i even renamed it into "halo2" (its not really halo2, lol) you simply unzip the HEK files from this website into halo ce folder.
