The NVidia drivers I'm using are signed, and I don't think I've installed any others, but I wouldn't swear to that). Along the way so far, I've had to flash the T420 with a modded BIOS (but as far as I am aware, it is exactly the current stock Lenovo BIOS (1.46) which is only modified by the removal of its implementation of a whitelist of permitted mini PCI-e cards). The thing is connected via a half-size mini-PCI-Express card which sits in the slot underneath the keyboard that normally contains an Intel Centrino Wireless 1000 Wifi Card. Perhaps I should add that I'm in the middle of doing something just slightly violent to my installation: it's a Thinkpad T420 and I'm trying to install an eGPU. My apologies in advance if I've not understood something and am wasting your time. I assume that I could go back to some restore point (yes?), but I'd rather know what the **** going on (and fix it). In particular, I would rather NOT "just" use that watermark program to make my desktop pretty, if in fact my OS installation remains in some wacko condition inside. Quite frankly, I'm more interested in getting my machine actually out of Test Mode (or some other weird state it's in) than I am in "just" getting rid of the watermark. In the lower right-hand corner of my (two) screens I see the three lines of text: I assume that "testsigning No" means that I'm not in test mode. result of copy-and-paste preceeds this line. result of copy-and-paste follows-Ĭ:\Users\seth\Documents\My Installs\iasl-win-20141107>bcdedit
I have just rebooted, and here is the output of bcdedit.exe within an elevated cmd prompt: Your solution does not work for me, as far as I can tell.
However, in most cases, an unsigned driver can be installed and loaded on 32-bit versions of Windows Vista and later versions of Windows.ĮXAMPLE: "Test Mode Windows 8.1 Pro Build 9600" type Watermark This option is not set by default, which means test-signed kernel-mode drivers will not load by default on 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and later versions of Windows.įor 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and later versions of Windows, the kernel-mode code signing policy requires that all kernel-mode code have a digital signature. The TESTSIGNING boot configuration option determines whether Windows Vista and later versions of Windows will load any type of test-signed kernel-mode code. Microsoft added test mode to Windows so that users can test programs without having to provide an authentication certificate. This test mode may occur if an application whose drivers are not digitally signed by Microsoft is installed and still in the test phase. According to Microsoft, the test mode watermark can appear if the test signing mode is started on the computer.
