I downloaded the setup from here:
https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/1012-microsoft-games-for-windows-live/
and i simply run the "xliveredist" file
I then opened dirt 2, inserted my cd key and i logged in succesfully with my Xbox account!
No crashes,no problems, everything synced succesfully
Simply double click on the file "xliveredist" in the downloaded files from PCGamingwiki and it will install the necessay client software that the GFWL titles use to log in.No Other files are needed.
I have used this method over a number of years.
If you happen to own an older GFWL game, you might be able to use the key for Dirt 2. Note that if it does happen to work, you can't use the same key in 2 games at the same time, so don't share it freely with others.
GfWL and Dirt interface that it uses requires the original email and pass, along with the same CD-Key.
CD-Keys are tied to the account, not any hardware, unless that's buried.
To the average user that has some skills, it just looks like
MS Account for GfWL is tied to CD Key because it works that simply.
I don't know what email i used, in a security conscious mindset you don't keep an email that got sold along with your phone number by a website domain host Company. (Host Gator)
Microsoft seems to refuse to believe sh** happens, and not everyone using a broken DRM is a dang pirate.
Thjis isn't discussing piracy, rather the fact that locked accounts from microsoft require payment up-front to even ask about the issue to a live person, pff F*** You
You could just plug in the key when authenticating uaing your current Xbox account & see what happens.
I don't even wanna use GfWL App, bought the game, in my library for a long time,
long time to sit on my shelf with no rallying in China or Raid with Croatia.
