What Operating System and Antivirus? Starting with any compatibility settings?

What kind of error are you receiving and at what point of trying to play the game? (Starting up program, logging in, window opening)

Going on a limb here its possibly the differing gpus if you have drivers for both installed. I've encountered (not similar) issues with a similar setup a while back.

Seems like ACSS has a problem with the MagicDisc...

I've added an exception for that program, if you still having problems, let me know.

windows 7 64, no AV, i clean my own system by hand, still getting the problem, can't really go withut the secondary video card, i use it for a 4th monitor output, is having sanboxie even installed a problem? because it's not running...

problem message is a window called "virtual machine detected" saying "ACSS detected that you are trying to launch allegiance under a virtual machine. you will need to first launch allegiance from a physical machine before you can run allegiance under a virtual machine."

i know the dual graphics cards can be confusing for some programs, but as long as you can select the display device it works fine

Talking with a new user on Reddit who uninstalled because of this bug. Could the cause be because of a multicore CPU?

I have the same CPU as the OP, never had any issue.
I guess allegiance does not support dual gpu config.

The VM issue should be fixed, sorry for the delay...
