Or maybe you want to try to install the game on a vm ?

How would you do this?

My friend told me that hdd serial can be temporary changed under windows kernel memory or something like that, but I don't know anything about kernel..

seems weird to ban by serial number, since almost anyone can just clone to a new drive and get back up and running again. I would assume more likely you Username and IP address were banned. But that is speculation.

nope, they are banning on hardwareid that is generated from hdd serial id and motherboard id, so basicly changing serialid would change hardwareid

Can you, while in God mode, stop technicians from messing things up with DIY techniques before sending their client's drive in for assessment?

I'm an atheist, but I'm still looking for a deity. Spildit, you're almost there. :-)
