    Hi, In frist place, thanks for this great tool, I'm having kind a weird issue. I run Windows 7 Ultimate on an Asrock p67 mobo and it gets activated with the injector but then randomly deactivates itslef when I'm using it (no need to reboot or anythng). It just shows a black desktop (It means no wallpaper or aero) and tells windows is not activated.

    I have uninstalled the injector and installed it again, then validated at microsoft website but it continues hapening randomly. Sometimes I have Windows activated for some days before it happens, sometimes it just happens some minutes after I reinstall the injector.

    Hope somebody can help me.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    I searched hours for a way to activate my Windows 7 Ultimate on a UEFI and it finally worked, thanks to Tito and DAZ for the great work!

    Just to contribute:

    Here is my setup:

    AsRock P85M
    i5-4440
    Seageate 3 TB (I had to install it via UEFI to use all of it)
    Windows 7 Ulitmate x64

    How I did it:
    1. Just run the automated version (as administrator)
    2. set it as first boot priority in the UEFI
    3. Reboot

    Thanks again !

    So, how do I install the certificate and serial number without installing Windows Loader? I noticed that Windows Loader uses these elements referring to an Acer computer even though I have an Asus. How come? It is possible to change the computer brand to avoid future problems?

    Thanks

    Bye

    Do you still have your Windows activated?

    I want to know how to edit the BOOTX64.EFI file, downloaded from the first post, so that Windows Loader correctly identifies the brand of computer.

    Thanks

    Well on systems making use of UEFI the loader will refuse to install, but if the details line contains "v2.1" then it'll allow you to install just the certificate and key. All you need to do is press install.

    I think WindSLIC uses an Acer SLIC, so that could be why it's defaulted it to Acer. Nothing bad will happen if you try.

    If I wanted to just edit this file, as I should do? By chance, there is a utility that can edit this file based on the brand of computer?

    Thanks

    I guess you could try to replace the SLIC with a hex editor. Maybe someone here will even be able to do that for you. Either way, the result is only cosmetic.

    Trying to use this with an Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2.0 uefi.
    I can ONLY install in efi mode, nothing else works, when I tried doing legacy only the install hangs everytime.
    Installing in uefi mode works fine though.
    So i tried your program and there is a boot option but when i try it it tells me to insert the boot media press spacebar blah blah.

    I tried reading this thread but i gave up about page 20, didn't see anything to help.

    Anyone used this motherboard with this injector ?
    Would love it if im doing something wrong that can be fixed so I can get this working. Thats all i care about this is for my nephew. I have the same motherboard and i didn't have any of these issues so confusing/frustrating the hell out of me atm.

    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    I solved this issue, it turns out the cpu is bad. Usb flash drives that worked fine on other computers did not work on this one, 32bit windows 7 would not install(not my first choice just trying things). It was wierd. Somehow 64bit windows7 installed in uefi mode I even installed drivers and chrome. If someone told me this I wouldnt believe em but its true. I tried another cpu on this mb and windows installed fine in mbr, windows loader worked fine.
    Never would have thought it possible. Sorry to waste your time and mine of course.

    How do I make sure that, after inserting the BOOTX64.EFI file in the EFI partition, Windows Loader correctly detects the brand of computer?

    Thanks
