    Hello folks. I modified the bios on my old Asus P4P800SE MB and was able to activate Wins7 per the excellent tutorials here. However, my desktop shows a "Test Mode Windows 7 Build 7600" in the lower right hand corner and I see everyone else do not have this watermark. Is there a way to get rid of this? TIA

    I guess you can turn off Test Mode by typing bcdedit /set testsigning off in the command prompt.

    Thanks Zhou for that most elegant solution. I didn't really want to DL any scripts as some could be malicious.
