Gangland v1.04   

After installing the Roll back patch 1 for W2k (
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;891861 ) Gangland
doesn't run anymore. If executed, it hangs, full processor load in the
process list, and not in the application list. The game is StarForce
protected, and normally it does a discID first before executing the game,
but that doesn't happen. Did an un-, reboot and a re-installing with the
same result. Normally you have to put in the disc and serial key during the
first run, but that doesn't happen. And the process can't be terminated in
the list! Full processor load, and it doesn't run/execute/continue. Did
contact the developper and publisher meanwhile. Another game with a newer SF
protection runs well without a prob.

*update* : found and used a no-cd v1.0, and the game works, but it misses
all features from the updates, which are necessary.

Mediamobsters and StarForce Technologies are contacted, and this thread is
on a few forums and newsgroups, but no solution so far :(

Re: Gangland v1.04   

Seems you are able to uninstall the RU patch. Gangland and Panzers Phase one
are working again now.
