How can I check if the appellant microsoft Windows is authentic?
I got several calls from people saying that they are from Microsoft. They tell me I have technical problems on the pc which could lead to a loss of information. I know that there were several scams & have not given access them to my pc, but they are persistent & so real I would rather sort out problems. Thank you very much. Wini
Microsoft not never initiate calls to users. Unless you've placed a support call and expect a call back from the support agent, the call is not Microsoft. You can ignore it, or, if you choose, you can keep the crook on the line as long as possible to keep him from calling other gullible users. You might even be able to obtain information which would allow Microsoft to identify which plays this means round.

The type of my laptop is:
Type: HP Pavilion 1212TX G4
Serial number: {deleted private information}
Product: QG370PA #UUF
I hope that the details is right, because I bring today from my laptop.

Thank you for your information

Satellite U200-181: How can I check if the TPM Module is present
How can I check Trusted Platform module is present or not?
Hello
The TPM module (trusted platform module module) configuration is done in the BIOS Setup program, and this feature is available only with certain models.
I put t know if the U200-181 is favorable or not, but you can check it out yourself.
Safety controller parameters should be available in the system BIOS Setup on the second site.
If the device supports the TPM module, you should see the switch to enable or disable this security option. Generally according to the default TPM module is disabled. -

On the Toshiba driver European page you will always find the number pilot s versions and you can compare it with the s version of the driver installed on your laptop.
In addition the [Toshiba Tempro | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/TEMPO_RELEASE/] application keep you abreast of software updates and the latest Toshiba driver as soon as they come out on the European driver Toshiba page.
But just a hint; If your laptop works without problem, then I would not change anything in the operating system. I'm always that notice; never change a running system ;)

How can I speed up the downloads of windows seven?
How can I speed up the download time? According to the size-10 to 30 minutes to download a pdf file? Seems it should be much faster then 10-30 minutes
There is no way to speed up the downloads. Download speeds are dependent on your ISP and the package that you have with them. If you don't have a fast connection speed or fast package, you will get faster speeds of the upgrade of your Internet service provider Package.
