UPDATE: June 17th, 2005[/color]
Upgrading your nForce2-based motherboard ATA controller driver may lead the copy protection system to fail. You will have to clean your system from the previous nForce driver for Starforce to work with the new one.

What is StarForce? [/color]
StarForce is a PC copy protection system.
[color:"orange"]
Does it require drivers to run? [/color]
Yes, StarForce installs its own drivers in order to run. These drivers can be safely removed and are only ever used when the game is launched or in progress.
Download the StarForce cleaner here (file size: 16,7 kb) to uninstall the StarForce drivers. You should only use it when you want to erase Beyond Divinity from your hard disk, otherwise, if you want to play the game again (or any other game that uses StarForce protection) you will have to reinstall those drivers.

I have heard that StarForce and SafeDISC are not compatible on the same system, is this true? [/color]
StarForce has extensively tested these claims and can report that they have found no issues, across a multitude of operating platforms and driver combinations.

I have heard that StarForce 'dials home' and is like 'spyware' [/color]
Again, this is untrue, the version of StarForce that we are using does not dial home, nor does it collect, or transmit any information about your computer over the internet.

FINAL[/color] version of Windows XP Service Pack 2 if you encounter problems with the game.
