I don't know if this really works I have an USB external cdrw-drive and when I insert the xpand rally cd always say me that I should insert on another drive even with the original like the emulation could be becauase I have it connected a a usb 2.0 drive on USB 1.1 port? or not?

Waooh,

I jsut check that Silent Hunter 3 was protected by the
same Starforce version than Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
(v3.4.71.19)

So if your tip wotks for Silent Hunter 3, it should work
for Splinter Cell Chaos Theory too

I'll try...

Tomorrow evening, I'm borrowing an external enclosure that will allow my IDE DVD-rewriter to connect to my PC via USB2.0.

I'll update you guys tomorrow night to see if thread starter's method is reproducible on my computer. FYI, I was able to create a complete DPM file using my NEC ND-3520A at High Precision and 1x (it took 2 hours and 12 minutes!!)

After buying an external 5.25" USB2.0 enclosure and putting my DVD-RW inside it, the game still wouldn't run. In fact, as the game disc was being checked, I got a BSOD. After a hard boot, I noticed these words on my DVD-RW icon in My Computer--"Emulation Needed."

I think it means that my burned DVD is not good enough even with the RMPS emulation turned on via A120%. I did burn with DPM at High Precision and a speed of 1x with the latest Alcohol 120%. I don't know why this is not working. And yes, I tried both disabling the 2nd channel, CD-ROMs, and node using Starforce Nightware as well as physically unplugging the CD-RW I had on the second channel.

This sucks....
