Probably the best thing to try is to install it to the USB drive while it is plugged 
in on both computers.  Then, see if it will run on both.  It is usually more than 
just copying entries as you may not find them all, as well as all the other files 
that will/can be installed in various directories.  You would have to make sure that 
the USB drive always gets the same drive letter for starters.  I haven't worked with 
the 2000 version for a long time and I doubt their support may, or may not, be interested 
in answering your question, but maybe someone on an appropriate forum would have 
a better answer as game questions are be off topic here and may be deleted by the 
webmaster.  Don't know for sure, but I think there is a forum for Sim City, or a 
game forum in general might have some answers if someone is doing it, or has tried 
it..
