Be watching for an Update on Starforce from Toms Hardware!!!

I believe so.

Heck many of us disagree with each other over SF but this is a serious situation. We are not just talking about flames or heated arguments on forums anymore. These are real death threats.

As some of you know, I know personally what it is like to be set up for assassination by Paramilitaries in Northern Ireland and was very nearly killed back in October 2002. So I know just how scary threats on your life can be.

I just want to add that our thoughts and support are with you Soulcommander.

@ ThirteenthHouR and his last two posts.

That's despicable, truely.

Don't let the bastards grind you down.

Ditto

Terrible news about Soulcommander

On a side note, if i run SHIII, use the SF removal tool, will SF reappear next time i run SHIII? Sorry if this is already explained in the thread.

I´ve just noticed that it apparently wasn´t the first time he was threatened by phone in regard to his anti-SF activities. How often had this happened before? When did it start? Was it always the same guy?

By the way, you should also post something on the Ubisoft forums, where he was undoubtedly much more active than here, and also on Glop.org and your site. There´s no information about this on these sites yet.

Please report information here: http://www.fbi.gov

The most recent call occured on his landline during a conference call on SKYPE. So it was overheard by myself and GT182. 03:57 Hrs GMT 16 February 2006.


Guys we know feelings are running high about this , but threatening a disabled guy and his family with phone comments like

"There will be dire consequences if you do not stop posting on the net" (That is the milder part which I can post here). is not the way to go about things and is a Serious Federal offence in the United States.

Just to remind peeps here Soulcommander has been trying to help end users and the companies involved with SF issues. To reach some sort of amicable compromise. I do not honestly believe that anybody here would condone these sort of actions against him or his family.

That is rediculous!!! Do you have the time they called? I'll you have to do is have your phone company find out who called you at that time and then relay that information on to the FBI.

Whoever made the calls will be found. They'd better be worried too as the authorities are now involved.

[Gizzmoe]

How many calls from how many different people were there?

[GT182]

As it's in the authorities hands and a part of the investigation, it can not be given out. So do not ask.

It would seem SF is the cause of stuttering in Falcon 4.0 Allied Force

Funny thing is there is nothing said about any copy protection being in Falcon 4.0 Allied Force. And, I have the box right here in front of me. Not installed but I do have it.

There isn't. Starforce was loaded by another app - its mere presence is what is causing the stuttering. Falcon 4 is copyprotect free. It is just that if Starforce is installed, you get some major stuttering problems when playing F4. Remove StarForce and all your problems go away.

Now this is a classic - pulled form one of the mods on StarForces board. Notice that no one is allowed to say anything negative about SF, and if they do have something bad to say, the mod tells them they are not allowed to post a link to outside websites that validate or back up that information - Lets all just bury our heads in the sand now!

Simple- Starforce messes up your SATA drivers.


ccap16,

Please don't post false and insubstantial claims on these forums. While constructive criticism is appreciated - ungrounded and false claims are not. Please also refrain from posting links to web sites that back such information up. StarForce messes up no SATA drivers.


bunnie,

I could advise you to try the following:

1) Install the latest StarForce drivers. You may download them from the following location: http://www.star-force.com/support/sfdrvup.zip

2) Install the latest drivers for your motherboard's chipset. In order to provide you with the relevant link, please tell me what model/brand your motherboard is.

Have a nice day!
