Maybe the downloadable version is a good solution for you.

Thank you ,but i don't intend to buy twice the same game.If Ubisoft was half honest or cared about those who pay its games ,she would have released a patch to make it OK.
I can still play it because i do have 32bit XP.But i have 64bit processor,2GB RAM and modern hardware and passing to 64bit OS is in my immediate targets so to take full advantage of my hardware.And honestly having a game bought in late 2005 which won't work with 64bit OS,is something that makes me angry.If i had bought a game 3 years ago,when there wasn't the minimun hint that the processors would go 64bit,then yes,i would have admitted that ubisoft couldn't have predicted such an evolution.But now we are talking about 64bit processors for over a year now and windows 64bit is a reality and the incoming new windows will also be 64 bit.
I have no more money for ubisoft to buy also her downloaded version ,which i presume is without starforce? I think i will have money only for someone else who will liberate me from the limits of starforce "protection".It's when the legal customer gets punished for being legal and has to resort on feeding illegality.
I have been playing war simulators for decades,my job is in the military too,i have always supported the genre ,because it is specialized and thus doesn't attract the kids who want "bang bang! i killed you".But it is the first time i encounter this protection and certainly will NOT reward ubisoft for the way that treats its customer by buying also the downloadable version.I don't intend only the fact of the 64bit ,but also why on my box there isn't any mention of the warning about possible conflicts as i read exists on the US box.On my game the warning exists only inside the manual.
I have taken the fist on my face once.No more.
Excuse me for the tone,but i have had enough with this thing.It is time to tell things straight and i will pray for the day that a EU law comes out and finally starts controlling these gentlemen ,like they do with any other commercial sector in the EU.
Regards and i am out of this discussion.Hail Starforce.
