I have the asset program and tried asset /s xxxxxxx (my Service Tag) however it says, a:\ asset /s xxxxxxx ASSET -- Version 2.01 (C) Copyright 1993 - 2000 Dell Computer Corp About to change the Service Tag. Are you sure? [y,n] (I enter y) BEEP Error: Cannot change the Service Tag. Please ensure the tag is in a correct format, and the SETUP password is disabled. I did check the code and the password, all ok, so guys, any ideas? I also tried to delete the Service Tag first (asset /s /d) dit the same stuff as trying to set it and the exact same error....
