The problem is that my brother bought is own copy of Age of Empires III (original no xpac) and want to register on ESO, but we already have AOE3 installed in the computer... How can I temporarely change the CD-Key for him to register on ESO? Any help will be very appreciated...

You can't. Uninstall and reinstall. The 2 copies of AoE thing doesn't really work well on one computer. You'll need to uninstall and reinstall everytime you wanted to play with a different account.

Each account is tied to the CD key, if you want a new account either ask ES to reset it (doubt they'd do it) or you'll have to buy another CD key (another game)

Uninstall and reinstall. After you did this you can unlock any ESO Account with TWC a Key (just once, so you will need to buy TWC twice).

You will have to uninstall and reinstall to create the new account, but not each time you want to change accounts. Once the account exists, ESO couldn't care less what disk installed the game. I know this for sure. My friends have logged into their ESO accounts from one of my computers several times (they all own AoE3 and set up their accounts originally on their own computers.)
