    Hi Serg008,
    The modded BIOS does not work. It says: "Error: Can not analyze ROM file. ROM file may be corrupted".
    I tried modding the BIOS by myself using AMI Tool 1.62. I finally managed to access the SSV2 option by canceling first screen. And SSV2 option seems to work successfully. But the ASUS bin, SLP & certificate I used did not work. BIOS flashed correctly but m$ didn't activate... Maybe you know better than me...
    Thank you

    Hi Serg008,
    I don't know what it is but something is wrong! I flashed your latest modded BIOS. This time, vereything worked fine. I got no errors just like it was the case with my own mod using SSV2 and ASUS cert. But again I cannot activate W1nd0ws. My key is right. I used it on Sunday to activate another server. So where's the problem? Is it the modded BIOS, is it the DELL cert or is it the key? I cannot answer for sure. Hopefully you can help...
    Thank you!

    Hi Ipmark,
    Thanks for the tip. I should think a little more myself...:waycon1:
    With the screenshots, I can understand better. The mod is not right since there are now 2 XSDT table in the BIOS. Here's the 1st screenshot when I launch SLIC Toolkit

    If I click "yes" on the first screen I get this

    If I click "no" on the first screen, I get this

    YES! I flashed from DOS using your flash.bat file. And I flashed the original BIOS again prior to that. This time your mod didn't introduce a 2nd XSDT table because SLIC Toolkit didn't alert me about 2 tables. But as you can see your mod had the DELL QA9 landed into FACP and not SLIC. NEC is still in the SLIC table!
    Hope you can still help...
