    Is it only for one game?
    Does it say "game.exe" for each game or are you just using that as an example?
    Are your drivers up to date?

    Can you retype the error message? I can't make any sense out of what you wrote up there. All I can see is that an error report was generated which contained some details.
    People seem to be reading it as a problem with your product ID, but I don't think it's saying that at all.
    It would help if you described
    a) what game(s)
    b) if the game starts up or not
    c) when it crashes, and if its reproducible each time
    d) anything else of note

    If there's a few games crashing like that it's probably either a driver or directx problem. Try (re)installing the latest version of directx. You also mention that all your drivers are up to date. Could this just be happening since you updated some ? You could try maybe completly uninstalling some of the ones you have and reinstalling older versions.
