Please note that this guide only applies to Dell systems. ![]() Dell Bios Command Line Error 1051 Windows 10 Pro X64All systems were running Windows 7 Professional x64 and Windows 10 Pro x64. I cannot guarantee this guide will work with Windows Vista or Windows XP. Dell Bios Command Line Error 1051 Download The LatestBefore we get started, you are going to need the following tools installed on your workstation: System Center Configuration Manager 2012 R2 Admin Console Dell Command Configure Toolkit ( Download ) First, download the latest BIOS revisions for each of the models deployed throughout your organization from Dells support website. Create a new folder in which you will place the downloaded revisions. For this guide, I will be saving all necessary files to the following location: SCS-CFGMGR-MPSWSTOREBIOS BIOS repository I have created separate folders for each model. If you download multiple revisions for one model, I suggest you come up with a naming convention so you dont have multiple separate directories to hold one revision. For this guide, I will be using the following naming convention: O780-A15 O OptiPlex (Family), 780 (Model), - A15 (BIOS Revision) Next, launch the Dell Command Configure Toolkit Wizard. Although you can configure separate packages for each model in your organization, I recommend creating a multiplatform package that will work with all models. I have never had any issues creating a multiplatform package that works with different Dell models, even those manufactured as late as 2010. With that in mind, select the Create Multiplatform Package tab and configure the package options. Dell Command Configure Toolkit For this guide, I have configured the following options: My configuration When you are satisfied with your configuration, export your package as a.CCTK (Client Configuration Toolkit) file using the EXPORT CONFIG button and save it to a location SCCM can access. For this guide, I will be saving my configuration to the following location: SCS-CFGMGR-MPSWSTOREBIOSDell CCTKConfigs Once you save your configuration, navigate to C:Program Files (x86)DellCommand Configure and copy the contents of the folder X8664 to a location SCCM can access. You will be importing the directory to which you copy these files as a package in SCCM. This is because you need Dells CCTK executable to apply your configuration. CCTK folder structure Now we are ready to create the task sequence that will push the BIOS configuration. The toolkit will deploy this task sequence as a required advertisement and will also flash any BIOS updates needed using the revisions you downloaded earlier. Open the Configuration Manager Admin Console and navigate to the Software Library applet. Expand the Application Management node and click on the Packages applet. Create a new package using the Dell CCTK folder you just created, but do not create a program or add any requirements.
