I don't know anything about Starcraft ... but is it an OS 9  
application? Most often you need to be booted into OS 9 to install  
something for OS 9. Classic OS 9 does not/may not work ... Classic OS  
9 is not the same thing as being booted into OS 9 when it comes to  
installations. Now sometimes it does work ... but reread the  
documentation, and if it says you need to be booted into OS 9 ...  
then ...

Then there's the OS 9 large drive limitations if you're running one >  
128GB under OS X ...

Just some thoughts ... wait for a guru or Starcraftier person ...
