    @doclucas, one thing i notice both installations have this in the MGADiag report

    Maybe WAT checks for valid Windows & Office ?

    I believe it does cause my WAT report says "N/A" for OGA but I have MS Office 2010 Beta installed lol.

    I suppose I should ask, anyone here running successfully with Gigabyte MB, bios mod, and WAT installed? I have a Gigabyte board, and will try some tests, tonight hopefully.

    Noticed that as well - even some of those posts on the M$ forum have that blocked VLK entry - but why flag the OS for an office violation?

    Maybe uninstall office and try valigating? All in all we need lots more testing!

    Why not? Both are MS product, both make use of Product activation and both are reported by MGADiag...

    No need to un-install Office, Save and backup the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Registration\{GUID} registry subkeys
    Delete these subkeys, re-validate Windows

    Tried it without office, same results.
    I can confirm that this is NOT related to office.

    Yes.
    Win7 ultimate x64.

    GA-EX58-UD5
    Gigabyte 2.1 SLIC using Award tool 133 and method SSV3.
    Gigabyte Cert
    Randomly chosen Ultimate key: -HYRR2.

    No problems with WAT, all genuine.
    No loaders or hacks have ever touched the system.
    Installed from 'untouched' ISO, not some AIO pre-activated wonder.

    also here is how my modded one looks for the acpi info using dell slic:

    OEM Activation 2.0 Data-->
    BIOS valid for OA 2.0: yes
    Windows marker version: 0x20001
    OEMID and OEMTableID Consistent: yes
    BIOS Information:

    OEMBDELL OEMB1445
    AAFT070809OEMAAFT
    GSCI070809GMCHSCI

    Compared the outputs of both doclucas' and Stormcrow's gigbyte results - the only major difference is the SLIC (besides the obvious like HWID's etc)
    SLIC DELL QA09 vs SLIC GBT GBTUACPI.

    I think that's a phone home invalid reply or something...

    Hi guys,

    I noticed these anomalies below:

    doclucas's GA-X58A-UD7 [flagged as not genuine]

    OEM Activation 2.0 Data-->
    BIOS valid for OA 2.0: yes
    Windows marker version: 0x20001
    OEMID and OEMTableID Consistent: yes
    BIOS Information:
    ACPI Table Name OEMID Value OEMTableID Value
    APIC DELL GBTUACPI
    FACP DELL GBTUACPI
    HPET DELL GBTUACPI
    MCFG DELL GBTUACPI
    EUDS GBT
    TAMG GBT GBT B0
    SLIC DELL QA09
    SSDT INTEL PPM RCM



    Stormcrow's GA-EX58-UD5 [genuine]

    OEM Activation 2.0 Data-->
    BIOS valid for OA 2.0: yes
    Windows marker version: 0x20001
    OEMID and OEMTableID Consistent: yes
    BIOS Information:
    ACPI Table Name OEMID Value OEMTableID Value
    APIC GBT GBTUACPI

    Code: 0xC004C008
    The activation server determined that the specified activation key could not be used.

    Cached Validation Code: 0xc004c4ab

    This line in the Diagnostic Report means your Windows need to be Activated.
