    If you create a virtual machine (VM) of win7 should it be able to activate if you have a SLIC 2.1 modded bios or are you forced to use loaders for VMs?

    Does the virtualization tool make any difference (VMWare Server vs. Win7 VPC RC)?

    Thanks in advance

    the proper method to activate it is with modded VMWARE bios. Your real bios will be totally separate, so having a real SLIC mod on your real PC won't matter in the virtual machine.

    I think all virtual machines you use will each come with their own bios.

    VMWare 6.5 build 118166
