Try the starforce remover. Go on googe and type starforce remover / uninstaller and you'll get an app that mostly cleans out your PC.

Probably your drive is set to PIO (I had the same problem), this damaged my drive, and now it cant read properly anymore. I emailed Starforce about this, but they said it was my problem, and not theirs

you know I dont mind copy protection on games but starforce is worse than having 400 viruses on your machine. this software should be BANNED and the company who make it should be shutdown. everyone should get together and form a lawsuit to force the company to replace the drives this has destroyed. I wont even install a game now with it on the disc.

i wont either.. dont think ill be able to install anything at the moment..
ill try that remover app, and i already upgraded firmware (i guess) i went to the site and installed the newest driver...

EDIT: ok, this is weird, after running that tool and restarting my pc, it works as it used to again...

btw, does anyone know what that program is called, that can ID your whole pc... so you can see what proc, memory etc. i forgot the name

I've yet to play a game that 'featured' starforce. And from all the bad news about it, I'll be staying away from those games.
