You mean steves?
You just copy it into notepad save it as NAME.bat, create a shortcut for it, give it admin privileges, give it a custom icon if you wish, and them just click and give permission, and it will boot your pc to BIOS,
OR:
You can download this shortcut pack I made, unblock it, unzip it, place it in Documents, and copy the shortcut to your desktop:)
It comes with it's own custom icon.

Shawn made a reg file to add that same command to your context menu, all I did was edited it to add the /t 0 than ran the file.

It uses shutdown.exe.
Shutdown.exe is the application to control all shutdowns and reboots.
Your normal options use it.
Then bat file just sets the choices for the next shutdown. But it uses the executable.
[QUOTE=Cliff S;1314081]Kol12 I made a copy of ma 5GHz BIOS setting once, because after updating BIOS, it gets to be a pain resetting everything over again.
How did you make that text copy of your bios? When the next bios update comes, I won't remember all my changes I'm sure.
Thanks I will try that right now.
