Total newbie here, My current setup is a HP Pavilion Slimline Model s3100n PCB Asus M2NC51-AR PCB version 1.01 Bios Type Award Bios SLIC wanting HP 2.1 and after searching around, I think the closest I am able to find is this: hXXp://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/5863-Award-amp-AMI-Bios-mod-requests.?p=175821&highlight=m2nc51-ar#post175821 (Apparently my post count blocks link posting, so XX instead of tt) Are they compatible? How would I know?
Great. Just realized the link is dead though so I guess I'm doing it myself now anyway. Another question: Does the method of modding a BIOS make any difference?
Oh, well thank you, good sir! I flashed the modded BIOS, but after installing Win 7 Ultimate, it claims I need to activate still. I'm confused, did I do something wrong? I thought it was all automatic.
Ahh, once again, thanks for the info. I'm trying hard to absorb all of this, but it's pretty in depth.
