    Hi,

    Im trying to add a SLIC 2.1 to an MSI Z170A-G45 mother board.

    Using Phoenix Tool (I think 2.66 - will check later) with ReadWriteEverthing report.

    Tried using Module and Dynamic methods both completed and said SLIC successfully added.

    Flashed from FreeDOS using AFUDOS and in both cases (Module and Dynamic) PC boots and runs Windows 7 without problem but not activated.

    Using Slic Toolkit V3.2 shows the text in XSDT and RSDT ha changed to the MSI string but the Version Pubkey and Marker fields are blank (contain --).

    Can anyone suggest a way forward or what I may be doing wrong?

    I can upload screen shots, logs etc. later if required.

    Thanks

    Mike

    Any luck modding this bios? I was considering buying this motherboard and was wanting to know if you were successful.
