    Hi,with the problems i'm having with my modded bios/vista activation,can I just reflash the bios back to standard & activate?To explain further,I have an original oem disc from my workmate,so was going to just reinstall vista as a generic pc.(rather than asus).Any info on whether this should/would work better for activation?
    TIA :)

    You need the slic for slp2.0 oem activation, If there is no slic it won't activate.
    If it's a normal installation DVD with a legit key than you can go back & activate.

    Thanks Fzeven.That being the case,can you point me to further info on this?Very computer savvy but dumb as a housebrick when it comes to bios mods lol.Also the key is a sticking point.Can I install one of the Vista Oem keys like I did with the modded bios or does the generic Oem work totally different?
    TIA for your knowledge & help.:)
