windows 8 and ubuntu
change mac address
when i got my new laptop (dell vostro v131)
i try to change my MAC with the network adapter advance properties
but this function not exist in my adapter (intel centrino n 1030)
i search and fund this software Technitium MAC Address Changer v5 Release 3 (FREEWARE)
but when i run the install i get error massage
(some thing about that my os is windows 6.2 build 8012 so i cant run the software)
there is other way that i can change my MAC address?
may i can install other driver to my network adapter, and then i will get the function
[the strange thing is that the adapter in my previous laptop get this function
despite he was in lower class then this laptop]
thank you very much
and sorry about the English...

Hello there. This works on Windows 7, so it should work on 8 also... So try it.
Search in Start menu for Device Manager.(Or Control Panel->Device Manager) Open it. Explore Network Adapters and click with right click on your network adapter. There select Properties. In Advanced tab select Network Address. There click on Value and enter the MAC that you want to use.
