IIRC, you can tell it to install to a non-RTW folder (ie: c:/.../desktop/babagadoosh) and manually copy the files over.

Someone more knowledgeable than I will have to confirm/deny this.

Make certain your installation is properly patched to 1.5. You do this by running your installation and on the game setup screen it needs to say 1.5 on the top right hand corner, IIRC. If it doesn't say this then your not properly patched. If your patched correctly, make certain your pointing the installer to the proper directory, where the main RTW installation is located. The installer will do the rest.

Since you have the gold edition, you don't need to patch anything. It's already at 1.5/1.6. So all you need to do is download EB, double click the downloaded file, direct the address to install to .../Rome - Total War and you're done.

RTW. It'll be the same folder you can locate the file RomeTW.exe in.
You'd probably be better off making a new RTW install outside of the Users folder or Program Files though (something like C:\Games\RTW should be fine).
Cheers
