    Adding SLP via andyp's tool always results Security Verification error as it breaks digital signature of the bios. Moreover Dell SLP is a complicated one for adding. Why do you need the SLP string?? Do you want to install XP on this mobo??

    Yes, I have an XP install I want to keep alive for awhile yet. I have finshed the migration, and logged into XP on the Z87 - just need to do the activation part.

    I haven't modded a bios since P55 chipset, so feel free to tell me what makes SLP mods difficult - I thought maybe dmi would still work, no?

    I guess I could change back to retail and find a retail serial if it is a problem.

    1. Do a P2V & run XP in VM.
    2. DMI editing for AMI Aptio is difficult.
    3. AFAIK, a Lenovo SLIC mod should add Lenovo SLP string as well. If you want, then I can do it for you.

    Dell SLIC / Dell SLP would be preferred, but if Lenovo is what works ( a special case?) then that would be fine, thankyou!

    Another question: I think you did a post some time ago about rebinding TCP /IP stuff in Windows 7 which closed open ports - I cannot find the post. Was that you? Can you point me to the post? I cannot seem to find it.

    Thanks Tito!!
