1. First, turn off your pc.
2. Remove cover and unplug power cable from all your CD-DVD ROM/Burners.
3. Turn on your computer.
4. Make sure the drivers for starforce are still installed, because if they are uninstalled, the game will not work.
5. Turn on Daemon Tools, enable one virtual drive, and mount your image.
6. Open the game and it will run.
7. After playing, turn off the computer, and plug the power cable back.
8. Turn on your computer, and voila, everything is back to normal.

**repeat steps 1-6 each time you play your game**

(none of that Nforce motherboard crap, I have an Intel IDE controller and this method works perfectly)

and till nothing works and now it says:



Why is this happening ? wired that some people got it running
(sorry for my bad english)

Thanks!

I like the fact you have a bookmark folder called warez :P And the torrents...
lol This time I won't judge anyone tho, do what you like. In the end I'll be blamed for blaming you... It isn't obvious enough, is it ?

Get original game to run: RTFM, contact publisher, read official game support forum.
Flash CD/DVD-ROM: Go to manufacturer's web site, search for firmware update for the type of your particular unit, download, RTFM.
Burn CD's/DVD's with Alcohol 120%/Nero: RTFM.
Anything else?

Yeah!
UNDERSTAND the fuckin´ manual ;-D

Sorry 4 the bump

This means that your image is not good enough.Make new image witha alcohol 120% latest version setting DPM to high or just download better .mds file from www.copybase.ch and replace your current .mds file with the downloaded.Oh another reason to get this error may be the old version of the virtual drive you use.Try with the latest alcohol 120% or daemon tools before proceeding with the image file.

Is john486496's method confirmed working on a K8 (AMD) Mobo, so without Nforce? If not, is there another way to get the game (in my case: TOCA Race Driver3) to work without pulling my cabels out?

Hi,
maybe someone has posted this, too.
But I cannot search words like "USB or IDE" (too short).

I cannot play the games without unplugging my drives.
I tried everything.

Will a "USB 2.0 TO IDE CABLE DRIVE ADAPTER" solve this problem?
For example this here (ebay-german):

Thanks!

I wouldn't buy such stuff from Ebay. Instead, why don't you buy a nice kit from ViPower:

- a VP-8054V (an IDE docking station with a SmartCable port and a PSU), OR

- a VP-8054KIT (like the VP-8054V plus a complete external IDE box, for hard disk rack or CD/DVD-ROM etc.), AND

- a VP-8208 cable (USB 2.0 SmartCable; don't get the VP-8008, it's USB 1.1!) or any other SmartCable you like

in a shop? That should give you reliable performance via a USB connection. I'm very satisfied with it!

Why dont you just disable all your cd-roms (or writers) at your "Device Manager"? That worked for me!

Unfortunately what works for one person does not necassarily work for another. It doesnt work for everyone.

Everyone recommend this. It worked for me and all my friends.
You can atleast give this a try.

@Dr. Killer: It doesn't work for me! Also with Virtual Drive, no chance!
It works for my friend, because he has a(n) Sata-HDD. Special feature: He needn't to disable any cd/dvd-devices

@Joe Forster/STA: I don't want to buy something like this from ebay.
I only wanted to know, if this (some devices/adapters like this) would solve my problem.

I don't want to unplug my cd/dvd-writer.
And if I use my cd/dvd-writer via usb, maybe StarForce won't be able to use its "mights"

I also red, that with a usb-driver, you are able to burn StarForce games and to play them. Of course RMPS must be on.

I will search for the adapters.
Thanks

I forgot to say. There are certain programs like anydvd that have to be disabled first.

[Nightmare]

I haven't AnyDVD.
Which other programs should be closed, too?
I have also other virtual cd/dvd-drives.
(NeroImageDrive).
I also deactivated it, but didn't work...

I only have Nero 6, nothing more (burning software).

See a list of a few of them in the FAQ.

Uninstall any slysoft programs and other virtual drive programs. Use Daemon 4.
The error doesn't look like a drive error. It look if you have a illegal cd key.
