Man you're a cynical old bugger aren't ya!!:p
Everytime I post you ride me...

FYI no...neither computer has an nforce chipset. Mine is an old MSI Kt7 Delta FIS2R (VIA KT600), and my girlfriends is a WinFast 755FXK8AA-8EKRS (SiS755FX). I Have tried on my htpc (which IS an nf4 board) and it doesn't work. like I said....It works for some but not for others.

Have a little possitivity in your attitude dude...you sound like the glass is always half empty.

Peace

Posts without real information, such as chipset names, only create rumors, which are even worse than no information at all. (I would say that, until the Daemon Tools or Alcohol Soft crew confirm it officially - the former confirmed only nForce 3/4 so far -, all such guides that exclude the disconnection of physical CD/DVD-ROM drives are rumors.)

(I'm sorry if you think I'm deliberately pissing you off every time you do a post. First, you're not on my black list; second, I sometimes piss off everyone. ;) Third, you may want to include more information in your posts before sending them in so that there will be nothing left for me to piss you off about.)

lol...sweet as dude...I didn't really think you were having a go...

I posted at the DT forums a couple of days ago about this subject, but so far only nforce users have tried it and as I said before, it doesn't work on my nforce4 mobo either.

But I am waiting for someone else with a different one to try it...

All i know is that it works for me on my old gaming box, and on my girlfriends newer box (VIA and SIS chipsets respectively). And when it comes down to it, that is all that matters ay.:D

btw...what real information am I forgetting to post? I posted my chipset and that i'm running the image off an ide drive (forgot to add parallel) and from what I can tell so far that seems to be all that matters with sf...but then again, I'm probably wrong...

Full system specs for my crappy gaming rig:

athlon xp 2400+
MSi kt6 delta fis2r (VIA kt600)
1024mb ram
cyber drive dvd/rw
3 x pata hard drives
1 x sata hard drive
cheapy 450w psu
legend 6600gt (overclocked a lil' bit)
onboard sound/lan

sata drive only has music and videos on it, all os and game files are on pata drives
any more detailed info just ask:)

peace

Please, read the FAQ for more tricks.

I have an older PC that for some reason, just wont let Windows XP be installed on it. Rather than dispose of it, I looked for a way to use it, with Windows 2000, which installed and worked fine. I removed the CD/DVD drive and made it my Starforce only rig. Yes, it has an nForce 3 ASUS motherboard in it, so I made a 1 to 1 copy of two games, GT Legends and Splinter Cell, and copied them over via the network, loaded them with Daemon and they both work perfectly. Although I'd rather have Starforce-free versions of these games, this was a good use for an old machine.

1. You must have Windows XP with SP2 in order of playing xxxxxxx!?
2. IDE PCI Controller Drivers MUST be OS STANDARD IDE PCI Drivers!?
3. Unpack file sfcure01 that's in tools.rar and launch file !setup.bat
through MS-Dos Prompt and reboot your box.
4. If u have AMD64, then use sfcure_x64 that works same way as the other.
5. Check if all option of Daemon or Alcohol are activated especially
RMPS option.
6. Mount Alcohol 120% img and install the game.
7. Once installation is complete, launch sfdrup.exe to update
StarForce3 drivers and reboot the box.
8. Launch through MS-Dos Prompt the file !start.bat that's in the
unpacked file sfcure01.
9. Unpack file sfn.rar e launch sfn.exe (StarForce Nightmare 1.12)
10 Select in this order "Disable node" , "Disable CD" , "Disable node" , and
the IDE channel you use for real CD/DVD units (Pr. Slave , Sc. Master o
Sc. Slave ) , depending on how your IDE units are connected
11. Launch the game.
12. Play.


Try this if above fails, you must have gone through step 1 to 9 first:

Do it in this order:
1. First of all, mount the image with Alcohol 120%

2. Run StarF..k and select StarForce x.x.x.x and then disable CD Roms
(keep the program running)

3. Then run SFNightmare, disable CD, disable Node, disable Channel
(keep the program running)

Run game, if it doesn't work try with SFN again (No need to restart SFN) Maybe change disabling order.

GL! :)

Been using this forums for awhile now, thanks to all of you who take the time to put up constructive help and info, great for those of us who are poor or just plain tight and who still want to game!!!
Please Schhh, or anybody that knows, how do I find out how my IDE channel for my CD/DVD unit is connected? Am I showing my ignorance or what!!!!
"Thank-You in advance" as they say.

Go to Control Panel, then System. In the Hardware tab, there's a button for the Device Manager. In the Device Manager, there should be a line something like "IDE ATA/ATAPI-controllers, with "Primary IDE Channel" and "Secondary IDE Channel" under it (when you click on the + sign). Now for both of those, you can doubleclick on them and it should give a dialog which contains an "Advanced Settings" tab, so choose that. You'll get an overview for device 0 and device 1, these are Master and Slave on that particular channel. The easiest way to look for the optical drives is to check the Current Transfer Rate. The optical drives are almost always Ultra DMA Mode 2 or PIO while the hard drives are Ultra DMA Mode 5 or 6.

worked for me. i took the *.mds-File from http://www.copybase.ch

:D :D i am at step 10 and i want to know if something bad will happen if i disable pr slave and sc master and sc slave beacuase my previous atemps weren't good for my pc so can anybody answer my question?btw does it really work?:confused: :confused:

Joe Forster/STA 15-05-2006 09:05

Plug your CD-DVD drive(s) to a different IDE channel (secondary IDE channel) than your hard disk(s) (primary IDE channel) and then you won't have problems with even disabling the whole secondary IDE channel.

but if i do what it says then i won't have to worry about anything right?:confused:

Joe Forster/STA 16-05-2006 07:35

With the PC hardware architecture and Windows on top of it, sorry, you always have to be worried about something... ;)

SPEEDBREAKER 16-05-2006 12:22

i think my problem is this
10 Select in this order "Disable node" , "Disable CD" , "Disable node" , and
the IDE channel you use for real CD/DVD units (Pr. Slave , Sc. Master o
Sc. Slave ) , depending on how your IDE units are connected

question 1 what does that 'o' mean? or?
question 2 how can i see how my IDE units are connected?
question 3 what are IDE units?

I found this on the internet, its a bit different, maybe it will help


1. You must have Windows XP with SP2 in order of playing gt legends

2. IDE PCI Controller Drivers MUST be OS STANDARD IDE PCI Drivers.

3. Unpack file sfcure01 that's in tools.rar and launch file !setup.bat
through MS-Dos Prompt and reboot your box.

4. If u have AMD64, then use sfcure_x64 that works same way as the other.

5. Check if all option of Daemon or Alcohol are activated especially
RMPS option
.
6. Mount Alcohol 120% img and install the game.

7. Once installation is complete, launch sfdrup.exe to update StarForce3
drivers and reboot the box.

8. Launch through MS-Dos Prompt the file !start.bat that's in the unpacked
file sfcure01.

9. Unpack file sfn.rar and launch sfn.exe (StarForce Nightmare 1.12)

10. Select in this order "Disable node" , "Disable CD" , "Disable node" , and
the IDE channel you use for real CD/DVD units (Pr. Slave , Sc. Master o Sc.
Slave ) , depending on how your IDE units are connected

11. Launch the game

12. Play.

the game refused to start, saying to put the disc in another drive.
i rebooted the system, unplugged secondary ide, and then the game starts in a few seconds, not starting sfcure anymore, just mounting the image with rmps.
a friend of mines is still trying without result. Why ? don't understand.

What part of that don't you understand, because that was about as simnple an explanation as you can get? Ask specific questions, because that'll make it easier to help you.

SPEEDBREAKER 18-05-2006 07:55

Can You Note Everything You Disabeld?

SPEEDBREAKER 18-05-2006 08:07

can somebody (who has solved the problem and is playing it with fun)explane me what you did in order to play?

rlsuth 18-05-2006 08:31

I'm sorry, but in your case, I think it would be best if you just played with the original disc in the drive.

SPEEDBREAKER 18-05-2006 08:45

i dont unrstand you no more

Joe Forster/STA 18-05-2006 08:49

If you cannot make the image work easily, use your original CD until a no-CD patch becomes available.
