Appl. No.:
11/864993

Abstract:
The disclosure is directed to systems and methods for processor detection in a pre-boot execution environment. In one example, a client initiates a boot process by transmitting a pre-boot image request identifying the client's processor architecture. A boot server replies to the request and transmits a non-booting image configured to precisely determine the processor installed on the client. The non-booting image then initiates a second pre-boot image request including the precise identification of the processor installed on the client. The boot server may then proceed with the boot process, transmitting subsequent boot code precisely configured for the installed processor.
