OK but it's pretty hard for me to use dosbox since I have azerty-keyboard(the program will recognise "a" as "q" for example) but I'll give it a try.

You can switch keyboard layouts. Read this to learn how to do it.

Oh,I see.But I don't understand something:When I type "intro mount"(note that I am new to dosbox) it says that when I use the mount command it will create a new C drive...Therefor I am actually a little scared that I can do something wrong and it will format my C drive or something,laughing.gif!Or am I completely wrong?[/b]
No, it will not harm any of your data. What the Mount command does is read the given directory on your hard drive and make DOSBox act as if it was a drive of given letter. Windows (or any other OS you have) will remain unaffected. I advise against mounting the root of your drive (as in Mount C C:\), with the obvious exception of mounting CD-ROM and floppy drives.

Use DOSBox. First run the crack, then the game.
See if that works.

What happened after you ran it? Did it display any messages?

Well,actually they DO work,but I mean that the game still asks for the security word.When I ran r-sf1.com it displayed a message but the window disappeared about 0.2 seconds after I opened it,so I couldn't read it.

dosraider Replacementdocs has the manuals for starfleet command.
But if the game has been -badly- cracked you're lost.

If I remember swell it was a 1 floppy game, could only run from floppy.
Has been altered later to run from HD.
Isn't there an exe file to crack the game? If I reckon swell something as R-SF.exe or R_1SF.exe ?
You had to run that first.

_r.u.s.s. maybe there is some kind of other excutable which avoids the security code protection
