    1. That key is used for signing the firmware; that has nothing to do with Windows.
    2. Any SLIC can be added, even 2.4 which is good for activating newer Server SKUs.
    3. You need to install matching cert with the SLIC and SKU specific OEM:SLP key, thus a standard MSDN ISO is enough.

    But when I choose Dell instead of Asus in Phoenix Tool, I can't choose a Key file. It doesn't allow me to do. @Tito

    The Manufacturer should be Asus - don't change that. Just select SLIC according to your choice & pick the key, which is only visible if the chosen method is New Module.

    OK, thanks. I just gave up from Dell and used Asus SLIC 2.1. Just flashed new SLIC BIOS without any problem. Then I used a 7 Professional OEM cretificate and a SLP key to active. No my copy of 7 is activated successfully. Thanks, @Tito :)

    Hello!
    I need to get SLIC 2.1 for my Lenovo Q190 nettop.
    - brand Lenovo
    - motherboard Lenovo Q190
    - BIOS rev. EZKT12AUS / EZ12A
    - Bios Type : Insyde (EFI)
    - Bios SLIC : ?

    However I cannot find anywhere the original BIOS file and have no idea how to obtain it from the ROM.

    Also, I do not know which flash tool I must use to flash the modified BIOS back.

    Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance!
