Have you tried launching by right-clicking on the game's shortcut and selecting "Run as administrator"

and this may help you:

If LockOn: Flaming Cliffs returns an error after the StarForce check then disable User Account Control in the Windows Vista.
> Start
> Control Panel
> User Accounts
> clear the checkbox “Turn User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer”
> reboot
> Run the lockon.bat once (it is in the root of the installation)

IIRC, there are special Vista-compatible Starforce drivers - not the ones which come with the CD version of the game. However, they fucked up my Vista install, so I ditched them and got the download of Flaming Cliffs instead (and also went back to XP).

Use at your peril.
