Empire of Angels III

[furnut5158]

Hi! I googled up some news of Empire of Angels III being protected by Starforce.

I was able to install it from an image using Alcohol 120%, and though everything was in chinese, i figured where the install things were. Anyway, it seems ok, so I click on the run menu and clicked on the Run Game option. (first option)

Then it gave me a full screen of blackness and then completely froze my machine.

Is this the work of Starforce, or is it not compatible with windows XP? It requires DirectX 8.1 but I have DirectX 9.1c. Is that an issue? It is extremely hard to find any support in english, since the game maker SoftStar's forums are all in chinese. I googled around but can't find any support for this game that I can understand. =/

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
