![]() it is called "SLIC", and this "tech" has been advanced since win 7, so it isn't possible anymore to just "flash" a mod bios with "SLIC" with the right info. it is more coplicated then this, as it has a lot with some special table that the OEM ( ASUS ) has installed inside the "bios" itself. stands for: basic I/O system - a "basic" software that communicate with the different HW connected to form a PC.Ībout the "serial" been "in the bios". UEFI = latest BIOS technology ~10 years old ( born out of EFI )= CSM disabledīIOS = technology that was invented ~40 years ago! = CSM enabled ( in G751 bios menus ) I mean - does something missing there, that you couldn't post your question there ? P.S - have you picked a look at that sticky before posting this thread (Guide: How to install windows 8/8.1/10 The proper way (UEFI based installation))? You can perform my suggested method to "upgrade" your product key, without the need to go through the "official" upgrade process it self ( I.E you perform a clean install with additional little action that upgrade your OS & product key from being 8.1->10 genuine. Then you can choose your "upgrade" route to get windows 10:Įither perform the "official" upgrade WITHOUT wiping all your data during the upgrade process ( I.E you must NOT choose "Clean" upgrade ) So, probably cuz you got win 8.1 pre-installed, inorder to "upgrade" your built-in product key to be win 10 compatible, you MUST install win 8.1 ( HOME edition, OEM channel ), and you MUST connect to the internet inorder to "communicate" with MS server, so that your license will be registered in their servers ( you so that by right click on "computer" -> properties -> look at the bottom to check your license status -> if "activated" you're OK to move to the win10 upgrade step ) ONLY if your laptop came with pre-installed win 10, you can format & install the same version ( i.e home edition with OEM channel ) to utilize the built-in product key. ![]() If your laptop came with pre-installed win 8 -> upgrade to windows 8.1, as only win 8.1 is able to upgrade freely ( till 29.8.16 ) to windows 10. ![]() but one might think from your answer that can use his builtin license just by installing win10 without any special efforts -> that is NOT correct. If you install the right version of windows, the serial is not needed because it's taken by the UEFI bios.
