OK, I might be out of luck here. The motherboard is A8M2N-LA. I found a mod for the same board here:

I flashed the bios and have managed to lose the SLIC table entirely. Here is the link to the original bios file:

Not sure what to do. Maybe a modded bios with a version number greater than 5.07?

**Update** I found an old bios version for A8M2N-LA. I extracted the rom then flashed with winflash. After that I reflashed the modded bios. So I now have my SLIC table back and it shows as SLIC 2.1. BUT, while the certificate installs correctly and the key I found installs, my activation does not change.
Success! I found another bios on a german site which worked! Seems that there are different versions of the motherboard, one with two memory slots, one with four. I have four memory slots and the actual model of the board is NodusM3-GL8E.
