System Setup
Overview
Use the system setup to:
• Change the system configuration information after you add, change, or
remove any hardware in your computer
• Set or change a user-selectable option such as the user password
• Read the current amount of memory or set the type of hard drive installed
NOTE: Before you change system setup, it is recommended that you write down
the system setup screen information for future reference.
Entering System Setup
1 Turn on (or restart) your computer.
2 When the DELL logo is displayed, watch for the F2 prompt to appear and
then press <F2> immediately.
NOTE: The F2 prompt indicates that the keyboard has initialized. This prompt
can appear very quickly, so you must watch for it, and then press <F2>. If you
press <F2> before the F2 prompt, this keystroke is lost. If you wait too long and
the operating system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the
Microsoft Windows desktop. Then, turn off your computer and try again. See
"Turning Off Your Computer" on page 11.
System Setup Screens
The system setup screen displays current or changeable configuration
information for your computer. Information on the screen is divided into
three areas: the setup item, active help screen, and key functions.
