How to report FALSE keys to Microsoft
Hello
It may be a fake, where did you buy Windows 7?
However if it's a bad key (TechNet or MSDN) then here is the information you requested and much more.
====================================================
Run the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic tool:
http://www.Microsoft.com/genuine/selfhelp/ServiceRequest.aspx
Download the tool: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=56062
Post your results (copy button) and paste your results here.
After running the verification of the diagnostic utility of the following:
The part you are interested in is the section to three digits of the number to identify the product, if it corresponds or is included in one or two digits of the examples below, you probably have a MSDN or TechNet product key. "These keys must not be sold for retail use.
065 066 067, 068, 069 to Ultimate, box 220 for professional and 230, 231, 232 area for Home Premium,
There are probably others, but they should be close to those that are displayed"
(How to be certain - download the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool listed above).
Note: Though that illegally sold MSDN/TechNet allow product key for activation of more than one
(usually 5 or 10), so these keys can be sold "several times" before activation may fail.

How to report a scam to Microsoft concerning Vista Security virus
Hello
Yesterday, while I was on my computer all of a sudden, I was bombarded with a message that appeared to be from Microsoft. He told me that my computer was in trouble. He says it's the security of Vista. He wouldn't let me not use anything on the computer and said I had a Trojan virus. He also said that I had to buy a fix for this.
I called my son, who is very wise in the substance of the computer, so talk about th. He came, looked at him and said that one of its computers had the same problem. but that was it for Windows XP, there. He went home, got a disc with something I think that loaded malicious software in my computer, and he took care of the virus called.
He told me that this happened for a while and it is certain that Microsoft is aware of it. I have an antivrus program, but he told me that some of the terrible things that are sent are move the normal programs.
My question is: do you know about, and if you do, why are you not protect us from him? If the malicious software can do it, I'm sure you can.
I look forward to hearing from you in this regard.
Sincerely,
Grace Martin

How to buy a new Windows 7 key or Microsoft CD/DVD
After buying a few netbooks for my company, it was a shock that they came pre-installed with Ubuntu. Ubuntu is good for me that all the programs that we use to work on Windows, so I need Windows 7. However, after reviewing countless pages on Microsoft Web sites, I found unable to buy even 1 key of Microsoft as all redirects to Windows 8. No implicit offense but Windows 8 is absolutely silly--perhaps even worse than Windows Vista. After spending time and money to train people to use Windows 7, I find now that I have to re - train to use Windows 8. In fact, I don't even know how use Windows 8 myself. If Microsoft decides to rearrange Windows 8 to run Windows 7 (the Start button and easily organized programs), then by all means, I would be more inclined to buy Windows 8. However, this new interface is complete b * t!
Someone please be so kind to tell me how to get the keys directly from Microsoft (Volume license keys even will do) as long as it is directly from Microsoft that I had some bad experiences with retailers (i.e. retailers) in the past and refuse to go down the route of using one of them.
Am I stuck with Ubuntu or someone can help?
Thank you very much in advance for responses to my query.

How to remap the keys FN on Satellite Pro nb10t
Hello
I got a nb10t Satellite Pro, good machine but key card looks really bad for me, [Home] and [end] keys are really far from arrows, really narrow [Tab] key, slowing really office work.
How can I remap keys, for example to the value [home] [Fn] + [above], and {End] to [Fn] + [down]?}
Found RemapKey Microsoft, but does not have the FN key.
Thank you
According to the mode settings special function key, you can use the function key (F key) with or without pressing the FN key extra.
Details here
http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD2503B90001R01.htmThe FN key seems to be a characteristic of Toshiba and I don t think you could remap the FN key.
However, you can try to install the Remapkey.exe that is part of the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit. The remapkey should allow you to change the functionality of the button.
Also, the 3rd third-party tool like autohotkey would be good enough to make this work.

How to check a company called Microsoft Support?
I keep getting phone calls from a company called support essential Microsoft technical support request. I paid for support over two years with a company, but I don't think it's the same company. In any case, the calling company says that they are part of Microsoft and they can update my security settings to keep hackers out of my network and keep someone who they say hacked into my network and sending offensive spam. It's for real? I live in the country and have no neighbors. How a person to hack my network? I have literally no neighbors within 2 miles.
Its a variant of this type of scam.
