Access Media Wizard Without Serial Port.
Seriously guys? who uses serial ports these days. Honestly, I expected more from Dell. Short of running down to the store and buying a serial card (do they even make them for use with PCIe buss slot technology?) Is there a way I can access the management interface / media setup wizard?
Huge props to whoever can provide an answer.
