starforce protection....need help....

copying virgin here again....lol...just got a fun little game called Fire chief....surprisingly entertaining) ...and thought i could just use alcholol to copy it....but its protected by "starforce protection system" and the copied disc won`t get past the checking key bit before it will run the game it says "key error"....the install I tried to use the copied disc with was done with the original disc, will do a new install with copied version and see if it makes any difference....but i wondered if anyone could explain any way past the protection??? cheers
