    Sorry to ask such stupid question's,
    but all that i've done up untill now is all learned from this fantastic forum and people.
    Thank you One and All.

    My question ?
    Been using Win7 Pro for a few weeks,
    Activated with kms and it expires in 180 days.
    What to do before then ?
    I'm DuleBooting Vista Ultimate32 oem / and Win7 Pro32 kms.
    Both Activated, all WU's working.
    Can i Re-Activate using kms ? How? When ?
    Does this mean my BIOS is already slic2.1?

    Any help greatfully welcome..​

    I don't know what's "kms" but I have it fully activated with Hazar's patch.

    First I used soft-mode, then re-flashed BIOS few days ago to enable SLIC 2,1.

    Both methods worked for me perfectly.

    Thanks for the reply Maya77,
    My board is about 4 years old a Foxconn NF4K8AC
    so i believe my options for modding Bios are limited ?
    Where to find help regarding KMS Re-Act*vation is my only option i think?
    Anyone help...

    Thanks all for reply.
    No probs with google,
    i wanted to know what happens after 180 days,
    or if it's better to change to a Retail version and use Bios Loader

    After 180 days you need to re-authenticate agains KMS server again or you will be de-activated
