Hi all, I've got an original XP Pro OEM cd, but no key. There is nothing like SLIC in my bios, and I don't want to flash it. What would be the best method to get it activated? Thanks
el6, why bother with this hack when one can have legit OEM activation with minimal fuss? Did you notice that this post is over 2.5 years old? The times moved since then... sebus
This does NOT make any changes to your BIOS, it only writes the stuff to DMI area Better state what board you have sebus
Come on you know the script here we go round in circles you already stated it mods dmi area not bios some peeps will never take a risk even if there is no risk Once dmi area has been written to it will be what next. Been there for a few years
This MSI board?? If this is a K8 Neo, there are many bios already made for this, flashed and tested as safe..At any rate, the DMI disc should work with this board..NO RISK other than DMI not written... If you dont want to try this, we are done here...
I've tried it first on an old PB-laptop. It worked! I will try it on my normal pc. If it works with PB, it will work with everything.. EDIT: Did it! That oembioschanger program says:
I've checked it with another computer. Only the manufactor was set there too. Here the result of OEMBIOS.EXE again: That ones should do, but which of the three?
