Toca Race driver 3 won't work with images

[henry]

Well there a two ways to get around Starforce, some like SCCT need the backup(DVD+-RW) to be run from a DVD-ROM/RW drive in a USB 2 caddie.

Others like King Kong, POP T2T and recently TOCA Race driver 3, can be run in a DVD-ROM/RW drive connected via IDE and again on a DVD+-RW.
Nothing else required, no need to disconnect anything, no need to run anything either, but you will need an Nforce 4 mobo.

I never said an image, I said burned to a DVD/RW.
I also said no drives need to be disabled/unplugged as well.

What's the big deal with using images anyway? If it can be backed up to a disk, then your still not using the original.

True..but it would still find the mounting software(Daemon tools) and wil not run the game. not even using anti blacklist software

I'm not using Daemon tools, I'm not using any anti-blacklisting software or anything to hide drives, nothing but the game.

Just pop the disk in the drive and it works.
It must be an RW and if it doesn't work in the drive connected via IDE, then a drive mounted in a USB2 caddie, either way still no hiding or disconnecting.

alright..will try it tonight.. it's a RW..so it wouldn't hurt
thx for the help so far

Method using Alcohol, you may need to change speeds depending on your system hardware.

Creating an image.
Click the 'Image Making Wizard' button.
Click in the 'Data Position Measurement' box and select 'High', Next.
Choose your destination and image name then click 'Start', choose 'Maximum' for measuring speed(you may need to select a much lower speed depending on hardware) then 'OK'.

Burning image.
Click the 'Image Burning Wizard' button.
Browse to where the image is, click next.
Now click in the 'Burn "RMPS" to recordable Media' box and select max speed for writing (again you may need to slow it down depending on hardware) then click 'Start'.

I have burned 8X DVD+RW (Ricoh) at 8X and the disk worked.

My system Specs

Pioneer 106 connected via USB 2 caddie
