    Well basically, you need to update the Starforce drivers,

    available here
    http://www.star-force.com/support/sfdrvup.zip

    you need to extract the file with winrar or winzip, then click on this file and follow the on-screen instructions

    You must not underestimate people,

    Starforce is a nasty thing incompatible with Vista, meant to protect things like games from copying.

    Uninstall it...

      It looks like it's working; the window didn't appear at startup.

    héhé I ALREADY HATE this software... Spellforce 2 doesn't work because of it -_-
    So, it's thanks to this kind of program that we end up with lots of little files that are useless except for taking up space.

    After decompressing, did you install it by double-clicking on the decompressed file?

    Hello, I have the same problem, I’ve tried everything: updating, uninstalling, deleting everything, and Track Mania Sunrise keeps asking me for this driver, so I can't play it. If someone could save me, that would be great, thanks in advance!
