Yes. I went from a 2.0 lenovo to a 2.1 asus (purely for cosmetic reasons). Obviously I changed the bios too.

It required a couple of reboots to clear the not-genuine messages that appeared during the changeover process, but as you're doing something simpler (not changing manufacturer & bios) you'll probably not hit this.

 

The above statement is absolute 'BS'

 

Wasn't mine Just quoted.

 

I know, i quoted it out of the original message (I fixed this)... but thought it would be wise to mention this to avoid confusion, both -rilc or -upk do not harm your system in anyway

 

Nice, thanks for clearing this out.

 

can anyone tell me how to use XRM-MS Certificate and what does it do?

 

When the BIOS of your computer has a SLIC table to identify that it qualifies for OEM-SLP activation Windows checks the corresponding Digital certificate is installed and if the two match and an OEM-SLP key is installed Windows activates itself without connecting to the Microsoft key servers.

You need all 3 for activation - loaders simply present a fake table to windows at boot time, install the corresponding certificate and key and windows considers it is activated correctly.

I hope that explains it OK - after dealing with this stuff since Vista came out it is still as clear as mud to me - but it works.

 

hey slic versions are 2.0 and 2.1( w7 ).Or do certificates also have that version????

 

My fav question, lol.
To be short - nope, they all have version 2.0, so called "2.1" just have more recent date of issue (from year 2009).
