Is there a way to remotely access (read or set) Acer BIOS settings via wmi classes and vbscript?

 

I want to read and setup BIOS boot order and some other BIOS settings, remotely, on 2.000 Veriton S661 machines.

I know there are a lot of manufacturers which created this possibility (HP, Lenovo, FS, ...) and we succeded to do it on 800 Lenovo and HP laptops with vbscript using Lenovo or HP wmi classes. But, up to now we didn't find a way to get wmi management classes for Acer.

It is absolutely OK if we have to distribute some Acer software to PC's (via our SCCM 2007 software deployment tool), to make available this feature.

    I can ask, but this is far outside any normal support that we offer.

    Based on the information I have received, we do not offer this.

    Is there any solution for managing BIOS settings on Acer computers (read and set BIOS settings), which is supported by Acer?

    I understand that you are looking for a solution. 

     

    Unfortunately, we do not have, support, nor can we suggest anything that would allow you to do what you have now asked for multiple times in multiple ways.

    Is there any update for this request?

    Now I ask the same question for the ACER X4620: 

    Is there a way to read and setup BIOS boot order and some other BIOS settings, remotely, on 2.000 ACER X4620 machines? (For example, via wmi scripting, or via MS SCCM sw deployment tool, or via any other tool).
