    My desktop motherboard is Asus (desktop is not Asus brand) is sliced with 2.1 from the notebook slic2.1. It works perfectly.

    Cheers

    LOL Asus makes desktops? >_<;;;;

    There won't be any desktop motherboards which has SLIC2.1, since ASUS doesn't make desktops. The closest they get to desktops are netbooks in a case eg. eee Box.

    Put a Asus Laptop SLIC2.1 into ya bios instead.

    I would use the slic from your OEM and not the one from your motherboard manufacturer but in the end it makes no difference.

    That is NOT true at all. All Asus barebones (ie. Pundit) came with original SLIC 2.0, so I am sure new barebones will have SLIC 2.1 soon
    Motherboards are made by Asus, and the barebones desktops as well

    I was asking because I was curious about what Asus used in their desktop computers. (Yes, I am aware that Asus does ship desktops in addition to their laptops with windows preinstalled).

    I am going to be picking up an Asus desktop later today as I am curious as to how they license them.

    Let us know what your findings are.

    I really don't know if those desktops have a slic.

    Well, the machine I just ordered from my local computer store comes with Vista pre-installed and a Win7 upgrade coupon, so I am hoping it has a SLIC table
