Hi Tim,
If our company get new computers, then we must change some settings. For
example disable Hyperthreading in BIOS, or e.g. enable infrared for mobile
etc.
So the first possibility is to run a script or program on the new machine,
which will set all necessary options in BIOS or Windows Registry.
The second possibilitiy is to distibute first all computers to employee
and
then to use a script or program remotely (e.g. WMI + C#) to set BIOS or
Win
Registry.
To set a windows registry is no problem, I already created some programs,
which use WMI and it works, but my question is CAN I CHANGE BIOS ON
RUNNING
WINDOWS MACHINE? If YES, which technology should I use?
Thanks for sugesstions

What do you mean by "for all machine"? If you release an application
that
tries to turn on hyperthreading on MY machine, I'll uninstall the
application and sue your company. It's not YOUR job to reconfigure MY
computer.
