Using f keys in the game
Currently, I play Everquest, but have seen on other games that I can quickly other targets in my group by pressing f2 - f6. However, on this new pc, f keys are directly related to other functions. For example, f2 disconnects / reconnects me to the Internet. How stop the functions of plant keys f while in the game, I'm able to target people in my group?
Hello
I assume you are using a laptop. In a laptop, you can change the functional parameters of the function keys. But to do this, you will need to
see the manual that came with the laptop or contact the manufacturer of the laptop.
For example, in a computer dell laptop the following steps can help you change the function keys:
1. open your laptop and turn it on. Then locate the Fn key. It is located on the lower left side of the keyboard, next to the CTRL key.
2. press and release the Fn key. Now consider the keyboard carefully. You will notice that many of the keys have icons or letters and numbers printed in the
blue on them. These keys and functions work when the Fn key is enabled, as you did just. Test it by looking at the lower right side of the
the keyboard. You will see two keys with small blue icons 'Sun '. These control the brightness of the screen. Press several times on the bottom and you will see
the screen darken. Press the upper part. The screen brightens.
3. press and release the Fn key. Now try using the brightness keys. The brightness of the display will not change. You have disabled the Fn key.

I just installed Dirt 3 on my new computer, when you are prompted to log in to my Live account. I put in my info, then the code of the key to the game. She then returned and say my account does not exist or my password is incorrect. After trying twice more I came here. It is the same account and password that I use here.
I'll start from the beginning.
Some time ago a friend bought a game for me (Dark Souls prepare to Die Edition) by Toys R us as a gift. I needed to connect with GFWL to save progress. I did, using my XBOX Live account. I played 40 hrs of this game, my PC is dead. It was during the summer 2014.
Fast forward to now, I reactivated my Windows Live account and tried to install the game in my new computer. After that I set my account sign in problems (had to change my password three times until he acknowledged) the error message I now get it that the product key is registered to a different Windows Live account.
There is no other windows Live ID someone else has access to my account STEAM or WINDOWS ACCT. To my knowledge none have been hacked. I was put through three individuals when I called them. Account, a kind of guys then sale of troubleshooting. After that wanted to sale onto me accounts that I hung up. No one knew that STEAM has been and has not yet recognize that GFWL is actually managed by Xbox apparently (have concluded that myself). I know GFWL is now active, BUT I'm always supposed to be able to access my game.

Change the product key to use COA OEM during the product upgrade
I found the kkid106 question "can I use a product key Windows 7 OEM to a retail facility.
But as it is not my particular case, I want to be sure and make the issue.
The question is on a clean install of Windows 7 Home Retail using Windows 7 OEM Home. My case is not a clean install.
I have the following two scenarios:
Scenario 1. A computer with Windows XP Pro OEM who got the original damage. I have an Image backup which I bring to a Destination with Windows 8 OEM computer. I get a retail upgrade of Windows 8. I restore the Image to the destination computer, and then upgrade old XP Pro OEM with retail upgrade to Windows 8. Technically I find myself with a computer without a license since the upgrade come from an OEM from another computer. Now, I change the product key by using the Destination COA OEM computer to make a licensed computer.
This scenario is correct. Can I validate the license online or by phone?
Scenario 2. A computer with Windows XP Pro OEM who got the original damage. I have an Image backup which I bring to a Destination with Windows 8 OEM computer. I have an Upgrade download Windows 8 without product key. I restore the Image to the destination computer, and then upgrade old XP Pro OEM upgrade download to Windows 8. I find myself with a computer without a license, because the upgrade is unlicensed and comes from an OEM from another computer. Now, I change the product key by using the Destination COA OEM computer to make a licensed computer.
This scenario is correct. Can I validate the license online or by phone?
Hi Jose,
I would like to send you the items provided, they talk about how use OEM keys with the retail copy.
Thank you

How to find the product key for a game online on Steam?
I'm playing a game that connects to live on steam. He asked my windows product key which I didn't, but I discovered how to get without going through it. I got about 5 + programs for giving me my product key number anyway. But I always get an error message. I checked it more than 10 times. Still does not work. Is it possible for a person to miscrosoft to give me or I can call and they can give me?
Hello Elias1724,
Steam ask the product key for the game and not your product key for the Windows operating system.
Where did you buy the game to install it?
You bought the game on Steam? If so, then they would need the product key.
Have you received an email with a link to download the game?It is not your Windows product key.
Sincerely,
Marilyn

HE did exactly as the instructions said. Double-click the file to launch the game. is not the case. I get a box that appears and indicates that windows closes the file because it has ceased to work with an error.
any body can help me. I have windows vista 32-bit. a solution was to lower the load and to buy the program DriverCure. Well I don't really have extra money right now. is there another solution to this problem so that I can play my game.
No, it's not the same game as the PSX one. It's an arcade of Oberon Media (shareware, available athttp://gamecenter.oberon-media.com/game.htm?code=111274487&RefId=&origin=pcat_gm_d). The version that you contains no *.hta file and play very well if you do not use "launcher.exe" of the game (which has a script, leading to an infinite loop error), but the 'treasures of the Deep.exe' instead. Any necessary compatibility setting. "192GO should be enough for everyone." (of the miniseries "Next generation jokes")

How to use function keys in OS invited?
Hello
I've installed RHEL-6 as a guest OS in the box of ESXI. When I take console for this OS, I get the interface chart user by default, but I want to access this server by using the console. To do this on a physical machine, I used the keys (Ctrl + Alt + F2). But when I used these keys in the guest operating system its not giving any output.
You please let me know how I can use the control key (Ctrl + Alt + F2) for my operating system?
Thank you
Bigot
Hello
The CTRL + ALT keys combination is used by VMware to run the key to the host.
Press CTRL + ALT + space, press F2 (or) the function key while now always CTRL + ALT

Why say CS5 key-config that I can't use a key (combo) when I can?
I was watching my keyboard shortcuts (not that I can remember who is assigned half!), but looking at the things that I've done more often and I've ever used (and things I really wanted to not use accidentally, as enabling/disabling save transparency assigned next to 'go' key /..) ...
But one thing that I have frequently had access to merge... options so I thought, why not Ctrl-Shift-B? Small message appears and says that I can not use this key as a shortcut. No reason given - I tried just Ctl - B, but he was assigned to something else (color balance or such and gave an ominous 'you cannot use _any_other_ key to the color balance'...) (Huh?) ... whatever..., I went back to my 1st choice Ctrl-Shift-B. "You can not use this key as a shortcut...". Grrr... Well, what happens if I just hit enter?...
Click - it saved. Save the choice of config... Press Ctrl-Shift-B - Up comes from the merge options. ?!?!!?
I had never seen such a weird message - several other combos use CTRL - SHIFT - < letter >, so why would he complain of C - S-'B' but more weird... when I just go ahead and "do..., it works?" Why should I say that I am not allowed to use a combination of keys when I am? Is there a law that I don't know?
I was wondering what else I said I can't do that I can't do and I was wondering what else isn't really true when he gives guests who seem completely illogical - and who are also "bad"?
'Ctrl Shift B' is automatic color. Look at your puck history as you try to possibly available shortcuts and see if they do anyting.

OT:RHEM Cd Key
I want to buy the original game of Rhem. The only copy I could find was used. I'll be able to reuse the game cd key to install it on my computer?
Hi Matthew79,
What edition\version of Windows you are running on the computer?
Normally the games can be installed any number of times on the same computer with the product key provided. However, if you install the game on another computer be considered wrong licensing.
Contact the game manufacturer for further information on licenses and buy the game.
