Does it mean that now we can modify the bios with this slic and use the old Acer 2.0 certs and Vista will stay activated ?
Acer(ACRSYSACRPRDCT-LOHR)2.1.BIN seems to be a fake, it does not activate, looks like someone just edited the 2 bytes PubkeyCompare can not identify fakes, it just reads the Public Key from SLIC and compares it against the Public Key in the OEM Certificate
Great, I had problems with foreign operating systems using different codepage, i think i fixed it by forcing the locale to 1033.
