I know that some dell 760s came with 2.0 and some came with 2.1 slics. I have a dell restore disk for windows 7 32 bit that installs and activates on slic 2.1 tables. I found a slic 2.1 bios for the dell 755 on this site. Previously I had installed windows 7, and it did not ask for a key. After a week or so, it
gave me an illegal copy message. After much hunting, I found the 755 slic 2.1 bios, downloaded and installed it, and everything works.
I have one dell 760 with a known 2.0 slic table, and another one that I recently purchased, but have not fired up yet. It has Vista on it, which I
detest.
I am looking for a slic 2.1 modded bios for the dell 760, so I can install the dell restore windows 7 disk on it.
As a matter of fact, I have a large number of older delld.. 745, 755 and 760's. I have two 760's that had a non dell windows 7 installed, along with a number of other high end graphics programs. I purchased this off ebay. Just for giggles and grins, I cloned the disk and stuck it into a 760 small form factor and it works perfectly. I have tried the same disk in a 755 and a 760 and in both cases they do a hard reboot, just after the pulsing windows section of the boot.
People say Hal problem, but I have installed the dell oem disk on the 755 and the hal is the same as the one on the 760. I have no idea why this package worked on a 760 small form factor, and not on a second 760 full sized. I am guessing it is maybe a bios issue.
I probably will be buying a 780 fairly soon, so may be looking for a 2.1 slic modified bios for it.

Whether or not the "new" 760 has a slic 2.1 already in it, I have at least two that do not (I have run a utility that identifies the bios slic table on them), (not RWE, some other one).
