I thought I had seen that it had changes to this, thanks! Any way to VIEW the BIOS settings from the console? If not that sure is a step backward...

You now use the Dell Client Configuration Utility and make an .exe and run that .exe on the computer to set Bios settings. Of course, Im talking about clients and not servers. http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R123761&SystemID=PLX_GX280&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=4904&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=2&formatcnt=2&libid=7&fileid=164480 you can use make a batch file to copy that file to the local hard drive of the pc and the psexec it to run locally (has to run locally on the pc to actually set the settings you create in the file\bios) voila..

I have the 8.x console loaded and cannot see where I am able to do that anymore. Does anyone use this app that can help out?
