Product: HP 8200 SFF
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello Everyone,

 

I have a problem with 8200 SFF's corrupting themselves. 

We have an SCCM/WinPE imaging environment but because of corrupted UUID, none of the affected computers are able to image, in case of a major SW crash or just the need for different OS, they become unusable. Because of the UUID problem, they all skip PXE boot.

 

It looks like every time  we image an 8200, more and more machines get affected by this plague that's apparantly caused by a BIOS bug. The PC's are all running 2.10.1208 BIOS ver.

 

Since the machines are already 5+ years old, is there any chance to obtain a tool to let us change the UUID by ourselves?

Sadly, our budget doesn't allow any major hardware changes at the moment and 8200's are our second newest machines that we still try to use the most out of.
