Change Laptop Serial Number

Posted on -

Jan 1, 2017 - There are tons of information about changing your hard disk volume serial number, but not the real one that is hard coded to the HDD.

  • The serial number is a unique identifier number consisting of the character string, numeric digits or/and typographic symbols assigned to PC or laptops by original equipment manufacturer.
  • How to change serial number when system board is replaced ‎ 10:14 AM Thanks. Yes, I can do that in the BIOS and it saves it fine. For some reason any other utility for online checks (HP Support Advisor and HP Auto Identify) still report the invalid Serial number.

I am Trying to have my unattend.xml file make the hostname of the new image to be the Serial of the BIOS. I honestly don't care how or what language it's done in. Reading I have come this far but I am stuck.

• Run Corel Draw Launcher.exe and provide the Serial Key when it asks • At the end of installation Provide, any Email Address with a Password and press continue, click Skip. It will work 100% without any error or restriction, so Corel Draw x7 keygen (2017 is best for graphic design with the best layout and features. Xforce 64 bit free download.

$Serial does not return anything until you assign it a value. You can perform a WMI call to get the serial number.

Then your Rename-Computer cmdlet should work fine (you do not need the parenthesis around $Serial, though it won't hurt anything to have them there). For that matter, the only thing you need to supply, if you are renaming the local computer, is the new name. So this should work:

Since you tagged vbscript, here is a untested vbs solution. Download free punjabi song. This allows you to rename computers remotely. You can modify it and have it execute after imaging is done or on first reboot.

I love One-Liner (probably because i use it from an batch..)

powershell rename-computer (gwmi win32_bios).serialnumber

Of course it needs an Boot.

Since the original error stipulated that a serial number had been passed from the GWMI query to the restart-computer cmdlet, I suspect the command is being performed without the proper credentials.

You will be prompted for credentials. There are various other script examples if you prefer automating the passing of credentials to the cmdlet.
