I think something similar happened to me in the dys of stardock central, did you check that email on the service you use to pay is the same as the one you registered your account with. What i mean is if in your billing information you put one email or the paypal account you use has another emails that can cause trouble cause the game locks with the email of the owner of the credit card.

Give this a try:

Click on teh ? in the upper right.

Select the Lookup option

Enter the email you used to buy the game

check your email

Click on the ? again and choose the register option

Fill in the info

If that all fails, email support@stardock.com

I did the lookup. Removed some of the info, but the eMail, Password, and User Name are all correct. Should the serial number be listing "Impulse Build:"??  Anyways, I still have not received word back from Stardock support about this problem.

     Ok am i way off here or is the "serial number" also called the "PC DEMIGOD CODE STICKER" and found on a sticker on the back of the manual?  If thats it im having problems.  After i type it in the "NEXT" box is still greyed out.  Do i have the wrong number?  There is no number on my dvd that i can find.  

thank you

Yes, the serial is the sticker "PC DEMIGOD CODE STICKER" on the back of the game manual.  Yes, I included dashes.  I put in the serial exactly as displayed.  Just received a response from Stardock on the issue.

Hello,

There have been some reports of duplicate serial numbers.

Can you please provide a scan or digital image of the following items (as many as possible):

-the game box
-the game disc
-the inside of the game disc case
-the back of the game manual
-a receipt for the game

There were some server issues with the heavy load we were experiencing. This affected Impulse and our forums as well.

Thanks,
