I am getting call from Microsoft and they are forcing me to purchase so many licensed software but my budget is not that much..

So they are asking for On-Site Audit (SAM Review)...

So I did low level formatting of my All PC's and Installed Ubuntu.

So can they track I installed pirated windows xp earlier on these system or I need to change hardware..

After formatting on what parameter Microsoft Track earlier piracy: 1) By any Harddisk ID 2) By any Motherboard ID 3) By any IP Address

Please help me otherwise I have to borrow so much money for licensing fee.

Thanks in Advance..
