Did you try either of the cd links posted near the top of post#2 in this thread? Please try changing your service tag # and then you can probably change it back to original even, that is supposed to fix that SLIC length. If that don't work you can try running the command asset pass 12/31 at the dos prompt when you boot from the cd. Please report back and let us know which works best for you. I do not have a n model, but I have used that asset utility before. I already have the full length SLIC table so I wouldn't know if you just need to change the srevice tag # or if you actually have to run that asset pass 12/31 command to reset bios.
It's only been downloaded 8 times, still no feedback. Some have been downloaded 78 times or so with no feedback though...
Have you checked the acpi05.bin? Here is the SLIC table from my Studio 1555 flashed with my modded rom Software Licensing Description Table: 0xBFDFEC14 53 4C 49 43 76 01 00 00 01 9D 44 45 4C 4C 20 20SLICv.....DELL 4D 30 39 20 20 20 20 00 00 00 04 06 41 53 4C 20M09 .....ASL 61 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 9C 00 00 00 06 02 00 00a............... 00 24 00 00 52 53 41 31 00 04 00 00 01 00 01 00.$..RSA1........ 7F F6 C1 05 BE 5C 57 63 A5 8A 68 F3 6E 8F 06 FA.....\Wc..h.n...

All the ones without credit for mod in that post were modded by me, I have to go out for a few hours, if you want, I will go over it and double check the mod again when I get back home. I will pm you with the results, OK
If it looks like you post here then that's ok. But, if I see your original rom, then only Slic 2.0 is present. May be Acpi 5.0 with slic. 2.1 is compressed. Anyway if modded rom can be correctly written and activation works then , I think, it canbe taken as tested.
Dell Inspiron E1705 Great work. I have successfully activated W7 Ultimate on my Inspiron E1705 with your mod BIOS. (DOS flashed)
Changed service tag, slic table lenght is ok. Then Tag changed again to original. windows activated.
