I am using the Dell Command Configure Utility so I can get the bios configuration I need for our computers. I get two files a .sh and the .exe now I would like to make this a Pre Installation Task to be part of the imaging tasks. But do not know how to do this. Could someone help me out on this?

Go to Library > Preinstall task
Choose K2000 Boot Environment (Windows)
Upload the .exe
(the .sh is for Linux operating systems)
use the parameters (if a bios password needs to passed over or similar) if needed and name it.
Upload the .exe
(the .sh is for Linux operating systems)
use the parameters (if a bios password needs to passed over or similar) if needed and name it.
Then you can use it in the image as preinstall task

Yes I have a password tried it with one computer that had no password and one computer with out password. Also on the test computer I changed all bios back to default and took off the password. Still same error. Do I have to have cctk installed on all computers for it to work?
Now I put in the k1000 (the same .exe file and it works perfectly. Ran it as a script with a reboot.
