![]() ![]() Wondering about the above for the current PC, and wondering how the process works on business class machines in which you can order with Win8 Pro/and or the Win7 downgrade option. Seems like bios would have both Win7 and Win8 info embedded in it. won't the bios have both the Win7 and Win8 info within it?Ĭustomer orders with Win7 downgrade to Win7 Pro, later on wants to run Win8 = Problem?Ĭustomer orders with Win8 Pro, which gives them the legal right to run Win7. ![]() In a machine in which you have legal rights to run either Win8, or Win7. How do OEM's "downgrade" a machine? I would assume they set the bios flag to Win7 in the same way. (EG: Customer due to the dual boot has become comfortable with Win8 /has confirmed their apps work in Win8 and wants to migrate to Win8 totally.)ĭoes the MSDM table Win8 "reappear", OEM activation proceeds normally? What happens when you toggle back "on" Win8 from within the bios? You may want to flash update the BIOS in the DQ965CO board from 6000 to 6100, reboot and then try using oa2intel to add a SLIC 2.1 table there. The latest BIOS for the Intel DQ965CO board is version 6100 released in October 2009, a year after MPC went out of business. PC has been "downgraded" from Win8 to Win7 by changing the OS sku in the bios. Run SLIC Toolkit 3.2 to check if the board has a SLIC table in the Intel BIOS. MSDM key has not been extracted (and or has been lost) But, in case the Acer does natively come with Win10, it will have only an MSDM table. Pain and trouble-free OEM:SLP installation, then.

If the Acer does sport a SLIC table, you can simply use Windows Loader and have it insert the certificate and product key. ![]()
