The other option is to try and make a self contained install and spread it over a disc/USB stick or three. Some of the linux gamesites could help (I personally have tried this) and you may need a crack or two as well. Other games like unreal can be quite easily cut down, will run on the useless machines schools seem to install and sometimes even come with client programs (get a laptop to host).
Basically what version of Windows (earlier the better in my opinion), are they thin clients (everything loaded from network), standard Windows security or something more insidious?
It has to be said though this is a bit risky, while you are doing nothing especially wrong (assuming you leave the systems in a state pretty much the same they came in) it can still be perceived as hacking.
This seems like a good idea, since it wont really leave much of a trace. As long as it isnt too hard to do. I already have a crack. Nothing special in terms of security or anything, just a standard install of XP. And dont worry about me being caught hacking my schools computer, teachers are pretty oblivious (played though all of Chrono Trigger through my 2nd term.
