Default So does SH3 work with Vista 64bit?

I've tried the suggestions to no avail. Set compatibility on exe to winxpsp2. reinstall. Still not working
I get the protection error regarding starforce right after I try to run the game after fresh install as suggested to get starforce innitialized for 64bit. No starforce or SH3 patches installed first. The starforce patch just gives an error>nothing to update.
So starforce is the only reason this game is keeping from loading?? Going to their website it seems they want you to purchase SF just to get it Vista compliant.

Has anyone gotten their SH3 to work with Vista 64U and how?
I hope SH4 works with Vista 64..

You need to find a way around from having to use Starforce...

Put a NO-CD exe in the game folder after you the install game+patch and it will work.

Just same problem here... And when using a crack to avoid the *******ing SF, the game just crashes when loading menu... Does someone know how to run SH3 on vista 64 please? I really miss this game!

PD: SH4 goes fine in Vista64, except for the million bugs it has, but that´s not a Vista related stuff.
