Updating headless server

[Hunter Norman]

I have a server that I've set up out of a Dell xps tower that I intended to be headless, but I obviously used a monitor and keyboard to set it up. Since then, the power has gone out several times and I've had to connect the monitor and keyboard again to select normal boot up.

I'm about to take it down to put new hard drives in and I want to know if I can reconfigure settings so that even if it ever shuts down all i have to do is hit power. How can I make it default to normal boot up upon power up?

That's usually a setting in the BIOS.

I know this probably doesn't help you per se, but this is where server boards with IPMI come in handy. ;)
