Risk of Starforce problems?

I am considering purchasing SHIII but I am extremely concerned about Starforce.

Besides game play I use my computer for burning home movies to DVD. My system is as follows:

Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro2 (This has an nForce2 chipset)
Athlon XP 2600+ (266 mHz FSB)
2 * Crucial 256MB PC2100 (not in Dual Channel)
WD 80GB 8MB 7200RPM HD (XP Home w/ SP2 is on this drive)
WD 120GB 8MB 7200RPM HD (used only for movie storage and rendering)
TDK indiDVD 420N (DVD RW+ 4X Wirte/ DVDROM 12X Read)
Gainward Geforce4 MX440 64MB 8X AGP (has VIVO for my movie producing) :hmm:
Antec TruePower 430W (1.0)

BTW, because I thought about getting SHIII, I have an MSI Geforce 6600GT 128MB 8X AGP w/ VIVO on its way.

I have read that Starforce has potential issues with burner functions and nForce2 IDE drivers.

Should I steer clear of SHIII due to Starforce?
