Starforcing me to insanity!!!

[Prchrklr]

OK I have about had enough of Starforce. I cannot get SF games to run on my system at all. It is driving me nuts!

I have tried out King Kong and Worms 4 so far. I cannot get either to work. I hear King Kong was a short game but I wanted to try b4 I buy... And see if it is really as cool as the reviews say.

Needless to say I have failed on all attempts. My results in Worms 4 are much the same.

I have installed it with only a SATA Hard drive attached and used DT 4 emulation on and off
I tried a ATA card with my IDE DVD
I tried to put the IDE DVD on the board and use SF Nightmare
I have gone out and purchased a Plextor SATA dvd drive and eliminated all IDE devices
I have tried all of these configs using SF Nightmare also "NODE - CD - NODE"
I also went into the bios and turned everything except the SATA to NONE
I tried so many things I cannot remember!

Still cannot get it to work. It tells me that the Key doesn't match the disk. In talking with a friend who runs his SF games with his SATA Hard drive and his SATA plextor dvd that all work fine and he seems to feel that my issue might be Bios related. I was going to take pics of my BIOS but that would take forever so I dug up the link to the manual....

took me 2 tries to get it to come up

If the link is not allowed and gets removed then go to giga-byte website and look up the manual for K8N51GMF-9 and tell me what you think. I have wasted over 30 hours trying to get this to work and spent way more money than I should have. Please let me in on any suggestions you have.

Thanks in advance!
