    Had you tried using SLI prior to the bios mod? seems an odd thing for a bios mod to break!

    It seems odd, also the DDR settings before. Only thing the SLI license is stored at DSDT which is an acpitable......the entire efi series seems to be sensitive and odd.
    Anyway this issue needs to be confirmed by another efi version.....also an DSDT dump could help. What exactly doesn't work? Is there an error message???

    EDIT: Could you please post an rw everything report of the original and the modded bios?

    Asus P8P67 EVO

    1) Update to orig 1204
    2) Do RW v1.4.8.5 + 173b9 Dynamic Slic + 1204
    3) Profit. Activated Win 7 x64

    Thx Andy :worthy:

    Thanks for the info..btw is it a typo P8P67 Deluxe?


    That is the question, gs1000 says no. It would be nice if somebody else could confirm this.
    It affects the P8P67 Deluxe board.
    Could you upload your original rw everything report and the report of the modded EFI, please?
    It seems that the SLI license is available and readable at the modded EFI....

    @gs1000:
    Please load your setup defaults save them and exit the EFI after you have flashed the modded one. Then retry to enable nvidia SLI and tell us if it works then.


    If not then as already mentioned please post a link to the EFI, the rw everything report of original and modded EFI, thanks.

    1.73 final - see first post

    ADD: Additional ASUS EFI dynamic lock removal
    ADD: Maintain module size (needed for ASUS dynamic to prevent memory setting problems)
    ADD: Remove dynamic MSI lock
    ADD: Dynamic now selected as default for ASUS EFI when dummy SLIC exists in BIOS
    FIX: Failure re-integrating _C0x modules
    FIX: (hopefully) failure to remove some locks on non-English systems

    Note these outstanding issues

    TODO: BenQ lock
    TODO: SSV2 bricks P8P67 PRO

    Thank you andy & Yen. It works great. :)

    I found other problem but will report it using different channel to prevent confusion because it is not related to SLIC. :)
