        You can disable digital signature check in Windows 8 and later by holding Shift key while pressing Restart and choose Disable driver signature verification enforcement.

      HI Abhi,

      Again some issues are occurring in this ROM such as application stops in between suddenly; I guess it will be because of RAM issue.

      Please let me know in case any other ROM could resolve this problem or else do I need to go again to my previous Stock ROM?

      Can You check the Folder for UBOOT file whether it is there or not ? I dont see such file in my zip file. I think , thins UBOOT file will be the one for screen display. All others wont have such prob because , already this file will be there in their phone ROM. They will be flashing other files so they wont have such pron. But I have flashed server times with other roms too . so it could be corrupted . So I would require that file alone .
