Got a Dell PowerEdge that you replaced the motherboard on, and now it doesn’t have a service tag? Reset it with the asset.com tool, which I’ve conveniently packaged as both a floppy disk image and an ISO for those of us in need. They both use the Windows 7 boot disk DOS and asset_A209.com from ftp.dell.com (renamed to asset.com).
Dell Asset and Service Tag.IMA
Dell Asset and Service Tag.ISO
Once you boot from these you can set the service tag with:
asset /s <service tag>
You can also set the asset tag with:
asset <asset tag>
Or clear the asset tag with:
asset /d
Have fun!
Standard disclaimer: your mileage may vary, and while I’m not actively trying to be malicious I take no responsibility for anything bad that happens because of your use of these. If in doubt call a professional.

Do you happen to know if this asset tag utility can be used on all newer model Dell laptops and desktops?
What I have in mind is to do a push where I can set the asset tags on multiple machines remotely using a script, or a batch file of some kind. Trying to figure a way to do this.

Hi,
I tried this tool on a Dell E6320 but it didn’t work for the Service Tag, only the Asset Tag.
Do you have or know of a tool/method for changing the Service Tag on a Dell Latitude E6320?
Thanks.
