Why do they tease us by putting up a no-cd crack that doesnt work?

Perhaps, because "they" have no time to test them themselves?! Hint: post a report in the "GameCopyWorld Support" forum (not here!) to have bad cracks removed.

Unhappy

I think that maybe this time we've been beaten by this protection (Starforce)...

The solution that Gamecopyworld has is (or it was suposed to be...) a fixed .MDS image, and it's not suposed to be a no-DVD or no-CD crack... the question is that it doesnt work...

Disconecting IDE neither, and i have SATA HDD with my OS...

Cumps.

Thumbs up Found .mds file good (at least for me...)

I have an HD image of Toca 3 never used because of StarForce protection problems.
I have tried all the suggestions posted (install virtual drive software, disable IDE drives, and so on..) but nothing was good for me.

Yesterday reading some posts in this Forum I downloaded the Toca 3 .mds file from www.copybase.ch (USA version) :
1) renamed it with the same name of my image file, leaving .mds extension for the file and .mdf extension for the image file.
2) mount .mds with Alcohol 120% (latest version)
3) install game
4) reboot
5) Run the Game and ... it WORKS!!!
No need virtual drive software or disable IDE drives in Drive Manager or something else...

PC conf. :
ABIT AW8-Max with Intel chipset 955X
2 S-ATA HD configured as RAID-0
2 optical IDE
1 USB HD external drive
