I don't know how it works for Dark Messiah, but for other games available on Steam as well as DVD, you can enter the serial number to validate it in Steam, and even install from Steam after that.

the thing is i need to run the game from the cd. ive already installed it by copying the the install files to my ipod using another pc, but i still need the dvd to play.

You mean even when you authenticate from Steam you still are being asked for DVD? That doesn't seem right ... I haven't touched my HL2 CD's in two years!

Nope - unlike the NWN Premium Mods, once validated online once, you can run without Net connection.

But you do need to activate online *once*, so can you run dialup from home just for the activation?
