"System Locked Pre-installation System Locked Pre-installation, often abbreviated as SLP, is a procedure used by major OEM computer-manufacturers in order to pre-activate Microsoft Windows before mass distribution. SLP comes in six different versions: These versions roughly coincide with versions of Windows NT (see table below). Operating systems that use SLP 1.0 check for a particular text-string in a computer's BIOS upon booting. If the text string does not match the information stored in the particular installation's OEM BIOS files, the system prompts the user to activate his or her copy as normal. SLP 2.0 and SLP 2.1 work in a"
