Technical Support
As an MSDN Subscriber, you may be entitled to receive up to four Professional incidents depending on your subscription level. These support incidents can be used to resolve technical break-fix issues and are the equivalent of paid Professional Support incidents.
To use the professional incidents included with your subscription, you must:1. You must first create a support contract by contacting http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/bb266240.aspx . The
contract creation may take a few hours to process. 2. Use your support incidents by phone or e-mail (using the same telephone numbers and email addresses below), or
submit an incident online. In most cases you will be called back by an engineer after submitting your problem information.
