    does this have anything to do with the exe problem with the optiplex 755 bios?

    Thanks for trying qtm

    But that still doesn't work for me.
    SLIC Toolkit 3.2 still can't find SLIC

    I went ahead and installed the certificate anyway (I thought maybe SLIC Toolkit could be wrong) and a product key against it, but activation fails.

    Can see the SLP string MSI-PC though :biggrin:

    Great thing is, I can try all day long with M-Flash, without worrying about bricking the board!
    Any ideas what to try next?

    Flash from DOS with flash utility from MSI (included to the pack with original bios).

    Is it that M-Flash doesn't load the SLIC tables from the BIOS file if I boot that way?
    That would make sense, I suppose. It would be trivial to use modded BIOSes otherwise :rolleyes:

    Ah well, will have to take the plunge I suppose. Will let you know if it works.
    I'm being a bit lazy here :p but does anyone know the recovery procedure for these types of BIOSes?
