    I'm doing good my bike isn't but its enough to get me a 780ti kingpin and haswell asus deluxe +4970k. I have been playing with this bios and i noticed the asus slic doesn't like the gigabyte bios. I think its a space thing however due to the fact that it seems like it offsets the guid. let me get the tools again to replicate the error. The dell slic went in easily suggesting that asus slic is customized to a specific bios type and considering that they make motherboards that's understandable. I am going to test all the slic's if i can find the downloads for them all again. One question i have is once i install a slic in a bios can it later be replaced with another bios with a different slic? Also for that note do the slic 2.3 dell have slic 2.1 included or do you have to have the specific model for the os you install?

    MB: Gigabyte H81M-DS2 rev.2.0
    tool: phoenixtool257

    My case:
    slictoolkit v3.2 report:
    X&RSDT != :mad:
    XSDT: ALASKAA M I
    RSDT: ALASKAA M I
    So they obviously equal, but not for slic status.
    SLIC Status: Invalidated :mad:
    So I tried hard to put there the "_ASUS_Notebook", but in vain.
    I've tried to change rw file in half pro hand mode.
    I’ve tried advanced options. BTW there is an option to change “ALASKA[space]A M I”, but there is no [space] in my case! :mad:

    P.S. On my successful one PC (with slic status validated) I have: X&RSDT: _ASUS_Notebook

    Tanks a lot, it succeed, but after I untick one more:
    - Don't alter any ACPI tables or OEM/Table ID strings if slic IDs match

    P.S. My case closed.:rolleyes:
