Plug your external USB writer into a USB 1.1 Port not USB 2.0, this is what I did and it worked, also disable all other IDE cd/DVD using Starforce Nightmare and run the disc. It works!

If you dont have a USB 1.1 Port then simply go into your BIOS settings and look for USB config, select it and disable USB 2.0 (USB Hi Speed) and select USB 1.1 (Full speed). Then Windows picks the port up as USB 1.1 and the game should run fine.

I burnt the latest Codemasters Liverpool club football 2005. PERFECT!! use Karlmuellers guide to burn the disc and then if it says "Needs emulation" on you icon in my computer then do the above.

Hope this helps someone, if it does let me know

Cool, thx for the advice. Unfortunately, however, I've already returned my USB2.0 external enclosure to Fry's after Karlmueller's method didn't work for me.

Since SCCT is the only game I have to use the real disc for, I'm gonna just put up with it.

I just hope someone can make a no-cd later on.
