    Hello,

    The thread title says all. I'm getting the following error. This is the first time I am having this problem I have installed Windows 7 many times on this machine before and I've never had any issues so this is quite confusing. Can anyone help me out here please? I have attached a screenshot of the SLIC Toolkit.

    No I haven't updated Bios :S. Wow this is so strange.. All I did was re-install windows (and I've done this multiple of times before and never had an issue) but I am 100% sure I never updated the Bios though. This is for my second rig which I only use to rip CD's with.

    I'll go and reapply the modded Bios to it again and keep you guys posted. In the meanwhile any idea how this could have happened?
