On 99.9% of peoples systems you cannot. I've tried every possible method suggested everywhere. For some reason certain people can run it from an image, probably just because StarForce doesn't recognize some of thier hardware or something. So don't be upset, thier are very few people that can run it from an image.

Personally I do not think a crack will ever be released. Obviously, cracking StarForce is quite difficult. Why would crackers make a crack that requires a lot of hard work if it just becomes outdated with the next version of StarForce. And the main reason they won't make a crack is because they probably all know that the next version of Daemon Tools (v4) will be able to emulate StarForce. Why would they make a crack if they know a program that is almost finished will be able to emulate it?

Ok i that did not know

So all further discussion about a crack quite useless...

Well you're partially right. Starforce cracks are generally hard, as parts of the protected executable are encrypted and each part has to be decrypted separately - this takes a lot of time, and crackers can't be bothered to do all this work (with a couple of exceptions). Cracks are not (that) generic. The approach to crack a protected executable is similar for each protection, but some parts differ for each version of the protection (addresses, added anti-dumping and anti-debug code etc). Hopefully, Daemon Tools v4 will support StarForce as you say...

strange protection system....

So far, i've been able to install the game off an image, but when it runs to DVD check, it no longer sez to insert the correct disc, but instead sez that my key doesn't correspond with my disc....(this is with both a virtual and USB2.0 DVD rom drive)
Is is another feature of StarForce or is it simply that i'm using the wrong key?

btw, when it sez "retry" after it sez the wrong key, a button with "information" appears, which generates a code based on ur hardware.
Is there a way someone can produce a keygen that exploits that code to generate a working serial key?

Thanks
