    Have just noticed that HP and released Win 7 drivers for the 6710b and 6715b laptops.. I wonder if there is an updated BIOS floating around with SLIC 2.1 also ?

    If I am lucky I will be able to get my hands on a 8710w.
    If I am really lucky then it is still working and it has the oldest bios.
    *no luck :(

    Btw anyone know something about 2730p EFI whitelisting?
    Already tried editing it but that doesnt work.

    Just noticed official Win7 driver support for HP 8710p/w.

    How good are our chances of an imminent SLIC 2.1 BIOS?

    That would be excellent if they were to be released as to my understanding these BIOSes remain unmoddable to date and only option to activate is using WoW 7.0.1b which does indeed work but still displays code text at boot. Unfortunately Hazar seems to have totally lost interest in the project :(
    In addition to that M$ are likely to target it in future WGA checks.

    Fingers crossed...:eek:

    Do not know about 8710p/w, but 6715b was also given the Win 7 drivers, but I do not expect the BIOS to be done (what would be the reason from HP point of view?)
    They did not care to fix this BIOS for more than a year, not likely now

    You might be more lucky

    Upgraders are given a non-slp upgrade key.
    I think that says enough

    That's a shame :(

    Well, WoW still works...hope it stays that way :eek:

    BTW, has anyone tried any of the recent Daz loaders on 8710p/w?
    Does it work?
