Change IBM 8303 BIOS/CMOS using WMI

[stressedoutmom]

Need to disable the Automatic Startup Sequence in the BIOS remotely on
appox 5,000 machines. I tried using an old copy of cmosutil (09/05/00).
With it the basic settings, like disabling the floppy drive, can be
changed. But I get an error 0162 when I try to change the Automatic
Startup Sequence. I've been unsuccessful trying to find the information
on IBMs site or through Google. I would strongly prefer to use a WMI
during a startup or shut down script.

Hi

WMI have no support for this...
