well, number one, I dont have windows live on my computer because i dont plan on doing much online gaming with this game (dont like the idea of paying) so where is the best place to get it from? And Two, i saw there are multiple services you can get with live, which ones do i NEED to get in order to play the game?
also, if there is a way i could do it manually that would be great. i tried it myself, renaming the file to something else, but it cause the screen to become an abnormal size and crash whenever i tried to change the resolution. I can run it at the lower resolutions when i manually change it, but when i exit the game in a high resolution, i have to change the file name back, turn the resolution low again, then rename the file and i can play again.

Alright I got the solution to your problem. My game kept doing the same thing so I decided to update my Windows Live and it works. (I hate Live too, especially cause of the paying part).
Go here: Link
and download the December update. This should allow the game to run with the Trainer enabled.
