    it's taken all morning but I finally got the DellBIOSProvider-installer script to work.  I think.  There doesn't seem to be a way to check that all is well.   I had to uncomment the line 58 to get it to work.  

    When I place the line "import-module "C:\Program Files\Dell\PowerShell\Modules\DellBIOSProvider\DellBIOSProvider.dll" -Verbose " into the profile.ps1 script I get the following when I open a powershell session.   I get the following.

    Windows PowerShell

    Copyright (C) 2013 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

     

    VERBOSE: Loading module from path 'C:\Program Files\Dell\PowerShell\Modules\DellBIOSProvider\DellBIOSProvider.dll'.

    VERBOSE: Starting PS provider DellSmbiosprov

    VERBOSE: .NET Version: 4.0.30319.34014

    VERBOSE: Performing InitializeDefaultDrives operation on the 'DellSmbiosprov'provider.

    VERBOSE: Performaing operation New-PSDrive for the provider DellSmbiosprov.

    FALIURE:drive DellSmbios: could not be created.

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>

    What is going wrong?

    It could be a number of things.

    Is the HAPI driver installed? 

    has the module already been imported? 

    You can force the import if needed by adding the -force switch.

    I have been trying to configure DellsmBIOS:\PowerManagement\AutoOnTime and I noticed that the only options that may be changed are the days of the week (Everyday, Weekdays, Select Days), but there doesn't appear to be a way to set the time of day. Could we get some documentation or clarification on this one? Thanks in advance.

    Hi UAAH, 

    Sorry, Current Beta version doesn't support the operation of custom attributes. the next version of Dell Client PowerShell Provider may have this features supported.

    Quick question: I've been able to enable the AutoOnTime seting on a Venue 11 to Weekdays, but how do you also configure the associated time of day that I want it to wake?
