WARNING ABOUT THIS UPDATE!
I decided to attempt this update last night . . . just before some gaming with a buddy (should have known better). The update ran OK and things seemed good after the reboot. But when I tried to connect with my buddy and run LOMAC, up sprang a new STARFORCE warning that my games ID was not recognized.
Not recognized my ASS!
After trying my Serial Numbers and being denied by StarForce I let it do the INFORMATION scan (which told me it did not like LOMAC and to send the data to Starforce . . but not WHERE to send it!), and eventually the HELP menu. Somehow I ended up at
www.star-force.com trying to do a manual ACTIVATION. All I was getting were error codes. The messages were not real clear as to what to do.
Luckily for the hell of it I tried LOMAC again . . and it ran fine. I then shut down all the damned STARFORCE windows and LOMAC seemed to be running fine.
I've no idea what I did to get it to run . . . but its running. Course it was NOT broken to begin with either! I then tried SH3 and it ran without a problem.
I'm suspicious the actual problem was the new STARFORCE drivers needing some sort of activiating and they just game me LOMAC errors as that was the first SF program I ran after updating.
FYI
