DellConnect
DellConnect is a simple online access tool that allows a Dell service and
support associate to access your computer through an Internet connection,
diagnose your problem and repair it. The associate will work under your
supervision. You can direct the associate and solve your problem.
To use this service, you must have an Internet connection and your computer
must still be under warranty. DellConnect is also available for a fee through
"Dell On Call."
In order to use DellConnect, you will need to be guided by a Dell technician.

From the Dell Support Center home page on your desktop, select Assistance
From Dell
→ Technical Support→ DellConnect→ Phone and follow the
instructions.
