Saw a similar post like this referencing an LOC engine issue, but it involved a stripped down version of Vista, and I'm running a full version of Windows 7. Installed Demigod fine, and played a few quick skirmishes, but after creating an online profile and updating the game via Impulse, when I try to run the game I get this error message: The product appears to be validated but the machine SID doesn't match. Deleting

I was really looking forward to this game, but it's just not working how I want it to. You can't return the games to Gamestop because their return policy is horrific, but the manual says I can return this game for my money back. How I can I do this?

Every time I try to run the game it says that it' "unable to create Direct3D, please ensure system has current video drivers" and I did the dxdiag test thing and was able to run Direct3D just fine, so I don't know what to do. Help.
