Permanently disable Driver Signing enforcement in 64bit

Celeras · Aug 21, 2009

-F8 on reboot only does it for the session.

-"/bcdedit -set loadoptions \”DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS" does not work.

-GpEdit.msc editting does not work.

Can this be done?

have you tried driver signature enforcement overrider?

it worked for me a couple of builds back. (i don't need it any more)

you only need to run it once, to turn it 'on'; then run it again at any time in the future to turn it 'off'.

happy overriding!

Celeras · Aug 21, 2009

Yes that works but for a different reason. It's not really disabling anything, but having you run in a developers "Test Mode" all the time... the consequences of which aren't really known. Not a good solution imo

mickey megabyte · Aug 22, 2009

the consequences of permanently disabling driver signing enforcement (your original request) aren't really known either, but you asked how to do it because the methods you had tried failed.

i told you how to do it and now you're scared. if you can find a way of achieving your goal whilst knowing all possible future consequences, then do please let us know.

What? They aren't even remotely the same thing. I want to disable a feature that has zero consequences as long as you control what is installed on your computer. You're running windows in a modified test mode built so developers could play around, and while running in this mode will never be able to be sure if its effecting future actions/installs because that isn't what its built for.

Thanks for your advice, but I asked for a solution and not a workaround.

well maybe it isn't built to have driver signing permanently disabled either.

Which is completely different then disabling it every reboot? Quit trolling.

Celeras stop whining, the man gave u a solution,
I've used the same solution for my win 7 x64 RTM installation, working on "test mode"
so i could install my 1998 TV card with modified drivers.

so far (month) no problems what so ever and i didn't notice the slightest change between test and normal mode.

this is probably the best solution anyone could offer for his issue.

Thanks for the input, but alternatives are not solutions

Ok... how about this solution:

use a signed driver.

An appropriate response to inappropriate behavior.

To the OP:

Is this a solution?

Celeras · Aug 28, 2009

@superbean: If that were an option I would obviously do that ;p

@Antman: Had not heard of this in my google-fu searching (probably due to it being called VistaBoot ;x), but it took three seconds of searching via their website to find this:

##The ability to disabled 64-bit drivers was originally included, but was disabled by a Microsoft Update. This will be fixed in the next version of VistaBootPRO.

VistaBootPRO - About the Program

Theyre speaking Engrish, but you get the picture. Looking into it further yielded unfavorable results. The latest post on their forums regarding this issue was in May 2009, in which it was stated that they're "working on it" for a future release. Which to this date has not come yet.

Celeras Why exactly do you need Driver Signing enforcement turned off? IF its for vmware server that problem doesn't exist like it did in vista x64.

Celeras · Aug 29, 2009

To use an unsigned driver for Sixaxis DS3 on the PC, there are no signed alternatives.

Thanks for trying, but you gave me links to the drivers I already said I was using, and dated methods I already said didn't work anymore in the original post :huh:

I appreciate the effort though

OK i cant just skip this over, i was trying to do the exact same thing this tool is doing the ps3 six axis thing on my win 7 64 bit, i did this in a command line window

Open a command prompt as an admin and type

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON

Now it says testing in the bottom right
Test Mode
Windows 7
Build 7600

THIS WORKED PERFECTLY, and has been working just fine for a very long time, so any one who may need help with this SAME EXACT PROBLEM this person is having...THIS ACTUALLY WORKS, dont listen to anything this tool has been saying. Hope this helps others who search for this...

I use that two, but wouldn't want to permanently disable driver signing just for that purpose. It's not like it's a real chore having to press F8 at every startup.

shorty52732 · Jan 6, 2010

if your scared then theres no solution for you, too bad i suppose, as for the rest of us, ive had driver sign. disabled for months now, and not one thing bad has happened to my computer, nor has there been any instability in it.
