Ok, so now for some reason I was able to get the game installed. Prior to trying to install it again, I downloaded and ran the Starforce removal tool - which when ran told me there weren't any protection drivers on my system. So I take that as there was no Starforce program in the computer already.
I then figured I'd try once more to install, and when I put the DVD in, the autorun window popped up and I clicked 'install', which it did - much to my surprise!
Now after installation, the program tells me it won't run -
But I AM the administrator! This is really frustrating - any advice?
