Sniper Elite NO-CD (NEW)

I have uploaded Sniper Elite nocd BTW to all who are interested.

I also for a 1st time ever managed to write a backup image I made in alcohol to a DVD-R, I had previously only managed to do it with DVD-RW, I made image off my legit game with alcohol then burned in nero 7 under DVD-ROM UDF (left settings to auto, this is how you backup X-Box games with X-Box setting in same menu.

I have installed the game from my DVD-R and even though its starforce I didnt let it run or reboot, I simple installed then closed, then put cracked .EXE in game folder and ran game.

I will never ever again use starforce drivers as i ruined 10 blank dvd-r's last week failing to write, I though writer was buggered or firmware or bad media or even nero 6 and 7too blame, but I removed starforce with cleaner tool and checked under hidden devices in Device manager for any traces left, then all my dvd-r's burn 1st time, now 10 out of a spindle of 50 is bad fail rate due to damn starforce drivers from legit games I have bought.

Starforce enforces DRM by instant reboot (without warning)

This backs up my findings and then some.

What a bunch of f00kers they are offering cash or holiday if you can prove the starforce driver breaks hardware, it may only stop it running till you clean out driver but still not acceptable.

That is very very old news now! Search the forums and you will find we spoke about this some months ago.
