Here's my steps: Used Phoenix tool to mod BIOS - - selected MSI for manufacturer(Downloaded bios from mfgr website) - used MSI_NB[MEGABOOK]2.1-318E6D8E.BIN for SLIC - SLP left blank - input RW file - verified cert using "MSI_NV-F10F096A.XRM-MS" - selected Method: Module Flashed BIOS Installed Cert (listed above) Installed Key (found in this thread:forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/10370-Windows-7-OEM-SLP-Key-Collection) It doesnt matter which key I pick correct? I'm running Win 7 ultimate. Windows keeps saying not genuine. This happened after I ran updates for some reason. Initially it was activated. I've also tried the BIOS listed on this thread (POST #5567): forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/5865-MSI-AMI-bios-mod-requests-post-here/page557
