    You are using softmod now. It most likely will fail in the future, as updates remove or inactivate these. When, we dont know..

    The difference in bios is most likely where the bios writes to memory. Some bios work with VL2, some with 3.0, some with WOW patch. Some work from revision to revision, it is a crapshoot as to manufacturer and revision working.

    Depends on the mechanics of the bios and memory allocations as to whether the patch will work or not. It is not a problem to run the program again, no??

    You take your chances with losing activation with soft mods, you take a chance with losing your MB with bios mods. If you flash a modded bios successfully, I see no need to use the VL..Kind of defeats the purpose of modded SLIC bios..:D

    Question for the experts Part 3

    Medic, thanks again, really.

    One more thing.

    So my ASUS MB with dasumo would never have lost its activation, whereas My new gigabyte with modded bios + dasumo might?

    IN other words was my ASUS Motherboard (without requiring Bios mod) Plus Dasumo a more likely candidate for permanent activation then my current Gigabyte MB (that needed a new slic bios) plus Dasumo is?

    is that correct?

    No..It doesnt matter the make of the motherboard, the softmods can be rendered ineffective by an update. When you enter the bootloaders into the mix, they may work for a good while, they may not. Permanent, almost certainly not..

    I am having a hard time understanding why you would want to use a bootloader with a modded bios. The bootloaders are known to be bad for the harddrives. There is no need for such non-sense:D
    conversely, there is no need to risk a bios flash if you are using a software mod.

    If your bios is modded, remove the VL, and insert the serial and cert.
