I know our Dell boxes create the GUID based on the Asset number, which is stamped into the MB's firmware. If we get a refurb or replacement for any reason, we have to run the asset utility to embed the number or end up with duplicates. Do your mobo's have any options to create a unique asset or serial number that the BIOS stores?
