Windows Authentication is not related to SPA. Just put <authentciation mode=windows" and configure IIS

I've tried that no success, still opens the login page on SPA
Seriusly anyone can get it working just by switching the auth to windows?
On a standard MVC app it's simple, but SPA is refusing my login even after entering my windows credentials

If you use Windows Authentication, then it's server side authenticated. VS2012's SPA template will just work if you turn on windows authentication. VS2013's SPA template does not work this way, since it has logic in JavaScript to do form based Login. So try to use VS2012's SPA template.

But what login page? The ask for credentials in the browser or the browser ask for credentials?

If you are using Web API with your SPA, check this link on how to use windows authentication
