[MACEP] Dell Key codes

[I Erbs]

I helped out a friend after their dell server crashed. There was no OS
media. I requested a disc from Dell. Long story short, it took over two
months to get the disk. I borrowed a SBS 2011 disc to re install the OS,
set everything up. Dell's are supposed to auto load the key code. It did
not. Now the sever wants a key code. is there a script out there to glean
the key code from the firmware? Dell  continued to be no help with this.
They suggest that I re-install the OS again. That is not feasible as a
third party vendor will have to come in a load and configure their software
and that is expensive, plus my time....
Any ideas other than re-install the OS?
Thanks
