Did you have the game or a demo of the game installed prior to installing the gog version of the game?
If so you may have left over registry entrys. You will need to uninstall the gog version if thats the case and then clean all traces of the game out of the registry and reinstall it.

I had a similar problem after a Windows reinstall. I had copied my games to the new installation (trying to get around reinstalling everything), but Spellforce now asked for a serial number, and refused to let me play.
However, simply reinstalling the game fixed the issue for me. The reinstall also worked in a matter of seconds. Apparently the installer noticed that the files were already there, and just fixed the registry, so that the game didn't ask for a serial any more. Smart. :)

I had the same issue and reached out to customer service. They told me to delete and redownload the game and to run it as an administrator. It worked for a day, then the same problem popped up. My final solution after wasting time trying to fix things was to buy it on steam. Most of the game I purchase on GOG work well, but occasionally I'll buy one that just has major issues.
