Well, I installed and uninstalled Black Mirror over a year ago and my computer didn't blow up. As well as a number of other games that have Starforce. I have a 4+ year old machine and frankly, with all the crap I put on it, I'm amazed it still runs as well as it does.

I'm not trying to minimize your concerns. I just don't think that "I had this problem with Starforce" stories have much merit. Any problems that do exist are not reproducable. It's not like every person who installs a particular game has a particular problem as a result. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. Install the game, play it, and enjoy it... it's extremely unlikely anything bad is going to happen.

You take a chance when you install ANY software. A game with Starforce on it is no more likely to muck up your computer than any other game. Really.
