We'll see. If they REALLY develop an IDE-Jammer or DT Pro would be really with vIDE - it would be great.
Then DT rocks...

Ummm... not sure wtf you're thinking, but that's not "marketing", that scamming. And I can assure you the DT team is not a bunch of scammers.Originally Posted by MikiMouse

Hi,
I have the exact same problems as many are having here. I used Clone CD to image the original (protected game profile) for both CDs. Then I installed from the images, one by one mounting them using Daemon-Tools 4. Whenever I try to play the game mounting either disc I get the please insert correct disc.
In fact, even when I just install the game with the original CD and try to play it from the regular IDE cd drive (daemon tools unneeded for this - tools tray app is running, but no images are mounted), I cannot play it. So then it seems they blacklist even just Having (!) scsi drives, when an IDE drive is installed..
I found someone (TheWumpus) on this forum who claims to have it working fine, but he had to reinstall the game first. This is what prompted me to re-install with daemon tools..Comment

Most copy protections blacklist SCSI drives, yes. And try uninstalling Alcohol if you have it installed, sometimes that helps.

The problem is not dt4 - but that scsi drives are blacklisted...IF there are ide drives present.
Now that i have only scsi drives showing - as I am using a controller, I can play X3 (starforce game) and CIV 4 with only using DT4 and nothing else!

I mounted the DVD image using alcohol + Anti-Blaxx... works fine :wink:Comment

That is not what I wanted to say with this thread.
It also works fine with DT 3.47 and SD4 Hide...Comment

I can play Civ4 by disconnecting my IDE optical drives (I've been physically disconnecting the ribbon cable) and then mounting the image in DT4. Works great. Same for X3.

Using starfucker, you don't need to manually unplug your drives. Starfucker will hide your IDE drives from safedisc, securom, and older versions of starforce.Comment

excuse the off topic question: Why does everyone talk about starforce nightmare instead of starfucker? I thought they did the same thing.Comment

SFN is the same as SF just a little more advanced.Originally Posted by JoelEllison
btw... I get Civ4 to work just by disabling my burner using Device Manager in XP. This is exactly what SF/SFN does anyways.Comment

I don't have to unplug my DVD (that is connected to my IDE on my mainboard), or use any of hiding drives software.Comment
