Do u mean that if I give trustable reason 2 Ubisoft, I will recieve a noCD for SCCT. Sounds like a joke.

This was confirmed by some people. You contact Stafroce, send them your error report and serial, and they will generate you an unique hardware-bound key for playing SCCT without DVD.
Works just like the WinXP activation.

I think they're cracking down on this because some people who are getting the activation codes didn't buy the game legitimately.

I think that can't be cuz how would they know my hardware. I may send them my problem that my drive can't find the DVD and my key. But we all got the same key, so everyone could send the same ****. How do they want to create a hardware bound key.

You have to send them your hardware info, too.

You start SCCT without inserting the DVD, and then click on 'information'. Starforce then tells you that hardware information is being collected. After this, you can view + save an error report, which you then have to send to Starforce.

sounds logical

I don't know how hardware bound the code actually is...

When you startup scct with starforce nocd it provides a "hardware code." The odd thing is, the hardware code is different every time you start scct. You can activate it manually by entering the matching activation code (not the cd key, this is the code you get from starforce support). So, the activation code just has to match the random "hardware code" provided at startup of the game. After this, the game is activated with no cd needed.

hi all.
CTYScorpion, can you please tell me what is the email of starforce to send them my hardware information?
And, robbdn, could you tell me how to get the code you get from starforce support?
Thx.
