The version of Starforce that comes with SH3 doesn´t support WinXP 64. Ubisoft has already made it clear that they won´t release an update so that it could run on XP64.

If you're really desperate and have a spare old Windows OS around, you could put it on a seperate HD partition and start your computer with that...
