    If you're not one of the few lucky that don't need to do it for some reason (we haven't found out why yet), you can only play games with the latest copy protections (such as StarForce 3.6) if you unplug your optical IDE drives, yes. That's not due to some blacklist that recognizes DTv4 but because many recent copy protections refuse to accept SCSI drives if any IDE drives are present in the system. The older versions with this check could be fooled if you hid your IDE drives with SFN or SD4hide. If that doesn't work, try unplugging your drives, it may be the only option.

    This is a Daemon Tools-specific problem. You'd need to unplug all IDE drives even if you wanted to play from your original disc put into a SCSI drive.
