This definately sounds like a problem caused by Starforce Copy Protection, I've seen a lot of this. Does your DvD Drive also double as a CD burner?

Nope, it ain't a starforce problem, the stupid frikkin game only runs at 60hz, and if your monitor won't run at that refresh rate you get exactly that problem. What graphics card and monitor do you have? If an nvidia card you can enable cool bits and use refresh rate forcing (800x600 is the resolution you will want to force) and you have to set it to your monitors standard resolution.

No theres a better way.

On Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE_/SOFTWARE/NVIDIA CORPORATION/GLOBAL/NVTWEAK/

Create a new DWORD Value called NvCplDisableRefreshRatePage with a value of 0

Exit out of there. If you have the latest drivers , youll want to enable the classic nvidia control panel. You can now choose your custom refresh rates to override in the control panel
