Did you activate all emulation options of daemon tools?

@Azagoth: You could try making your own full image yourself, from your original disk, with Blindwrite (preferably) or Alcohol 120%. See the FAQ subforum for a small guide about using Blindwrite. Good luck!

Hi Dudes!

Listen:

Ive done a Image from my Original DVD with latest Alcohol 120%

Then Ive downloaded a perfect .mds (for DPM) from copybase.ch for the EURO Version ... think there should be the US Version also.

So I was able to play the Game with DT4 (with DVD unplugged)! Good but not great...

But now Ive burned the Game and loaded it with my USB-DVD-Drive (with DVD(IDE) unplugged) ... AND IT WORKS ... its like i have my original dvd in the drive!

Hope it works 4 ya! I think you must have a absolut perfect image ... so better make one by yourself with your original dvd and use a clean .mds!

Erm by the way, please sorry my bad english (is it so bad??) ... german boy

The same with GT Legends!!

UPDATE:
YOU HAVE TO START IT FROM PrinceOfPersia.exe NOT FROM THE CD MENU... I DONT KNOW Y BUT ONLY SO IT WORKS!!!

Hi there... What I always don't really understand when StarForce is mentioned:

Ok... so there probably is no good way of getting past the protection driver itself, but the executable for the protected game has to contact the diver first, doesn't it?

So why not beat the protection there by making a no-dvd-cracked version of pop3.exe that just bypasses the driver?

Another way could maybe be a faked protection driver that games recognize as StarForce but that just does nothing but saying "ok" when asked. Has that been tried?

I mean... hey common I've always been the greatest defender of the theory that any protection made up by men can also be bypassed by men. You don't want to prove me wrong, do you?

A good protection makes use of the data read from the copy protected area of the media. (E.g. if I made a copy protection for an expensive CAD software, I would build a cheap dongle that computes the sinus function - or whatever else - instead of software. Crack that!) If you replace the original driver with a fake one, you'll lose this data so that game will crash.
