Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory Tips

Installs, but will not run

Chaos Theory installs flawlessly, but when first opened, the game states that the system needs to be rebooted in order for the installation to complete. However, a restart of the computer, a restart of the game, and a restart of the bottle do not work. This is due to the StarForce protection layer encoded into the game, and prevents it from running on a non-native environment, as well as certain 64 bit versions of XP and Vista.
