Heyho, thanks for modding my BIOS (Gigabyte ex58-UD3R, Version F4). I flashed my BIOS via the internal qflash utility with your Ex58Ud3r.F4 file. Worked well, my Bios is now in the F4 rev. Tried to use slmgr.vbs, but it always tells me, that i dont have the permission to do that. So i tried to use one of the softmod-loaders (like Vista activator 3.0.0.1) with Asus (i think it should do the same like with the Hardmod, but additionally installs a Bios-emulator, right?). Now my Key shows the letters OEM in it, and there is the ASUS-symbol visible. But its not activated. So i tried everest to check, if everything is right. SLIC : OEM ID = _ASUS_ SLIC : OEM Table ID = Notebook RSDT : OEM ID = HPQOEM RSDT : OEM Table ID = SLIC-MPC Something went wrong? Thanks in advance! Nikolas
Solution was pretty simple: Ive just uninstalled the Crack with its own integrated Option (ist the Vista Activator 3.0.0.1) and rebooted, now my Vista is activated. So if the modded Bios ist installed, just install the activator 3.0.0.1 with the given SLIC and unistall it. Then everything should be fine. Perhaps a Job for a programmer to automate this? Anyway, heres the report: Manufacturer: Gigabyte Type: EX58-UD3R Bios type: Award/Phoenix Bios version: F4 Slic: ASUS Works and Vista is activated Thanks! Nikolas
