King Kong is getting started - SF (Video)

I think you might have to have windows xp sp2 to play this game, a real shame.

- because the starforce drivers - that's the only reason i think

I don't have this game but I know about its protection.
Daywalker said U just have to play without unplugging or disableing.
This leads me to the question: Does it work when u resart? I mean, u can't let your PC powered up all time can't you?
Second:
It's impossible to make mini images of SD4.6, SR7 or SF3 protected game cuz the game checks speacial sectors on the DVD(image), so it's at least possible to make a maxi image only. If u really have the original, maxi images are crap cuz they are as big as a full image, u can make on your own.

I thought maxi images are not really big, they are just an illusion. I extracted a maxi image for another game from a rar thats 5 kb big. The maxi within it was 3+ gigs.. lol. So obviously the maxi isnt really 3 gigs.

It is.
If u open a maxi image with hex editor, you'll see that most are "0".
Only speacial sectors are left original. So the number of numbers and letters stay the same, so it has original size. But cuz 99% are 0 , it can be compressed that much.

the name tells everything:
MAXI image, which is a like a mini image, just unpacked a big one, so the name maxi image
once again the question:
this game works without unplugging any of my drives? is it becuz of SF3 CD?
Is it harder to beat SF3 on a DVD?
