Im actually looking for the pediags - the ones that I can run from the OS, rather than having to down the server.

Brian,

  We just run the Dell diagnostic software via pxeboot setup. You can  
create a pxeboot image on a windows machine.  I do not why you must  
first create an pxeboot image instead on windows machine instead  of  
downloading them directly.
