    1. BIOS upgrade/downgrade doesn't affect SLIC on Intel boards.
    2. Make sure there's no loader installed (check from Windows PE or live Linux media).
    3. As @LatinMcG mentioned, use v7 of the OA2Intel tool.

    Thanks,

    BUT @LatinMcG + @Tito I did use Version 7
    and I ran it (oa2intel v7) from plain DOS several times without success

    Any other proposals or tools?

    Solved :)

    I booted from USB Stick into Windows , ran Oa2intelwin, rebooted again from USB into Windows and surprise, surprise SLIC Toolkit shows the new marker :)
    Booted into Windows from hdd and SLIC Toolkit again shows the old marker: _ASUS-Notebook, SO it was clear that their has to be a loader installed or something else...

    Now I will try to remove this loader. I googled and found some info:

    Boot in safe mode -> command prompt:

    bootsect /nt60 all
    bootrec /fix mbr
    bootrec /fix boot
    bootrec /rebuild bcd

    I hope this will remove the loader ....
