SCCM OSD task with "To Be Filled by O.E.M"

[andyrite]

When deploying Windows 7 with a SCCM OSD task I query the model of the board and then install the drivers. I've got a few boards (ASUS) that come back with 'To Be Filled By O.E.M'

 

Any ideas how I can get round this?

sounds like the DMI of the board was never filled by your vendor. we used the app from How to change the DMI information on a Stone NT303 or NT307 Notebook - Stone Computers :: Knowledgebase

this app is aimed at stone machines, but i have managed to use it on diffrent vendors. (though i really wouldnt recommend that unless you dont mind bricking the unit)

 

im sure your motherboard vendor will have a simalar tool.

Mmm this is Asus being lazy and not filling in the string. You really need to find the right tool to alter it :/

whoops thread necro

sorry

Even though it was a thread necro, simplest answer to this seeing as i've had to fix this before...download a program called FD44 editor and a copy of the bios software for your boards, import the bios file, edit the settings, flash the bios with your edited file. Makes life a lot easier for WMI filters if make and model are correct, just be aware that this will probably void any warranty (assuming it even gets noticed that you've done it)
