System Setup

Overview

Use system setup as follows:

To change the system configuration information after you add, change, or
remove any hardware in your computer

To set or change a user-selectable option such as the user password

To read the current amount of memory or set the type of hard drive
installed

Before you use system setup, it is recommended that you write down the
system setup screen information for future reference.

NOTICE:

Unless you are an expert computer user, do not change the settings for

this program. Certain changes can make your computer work incorrectly.

Entering System Setup

1 Turn on (or restart) your computer.
2 When the blue DELL™ logo appears, press <F2> immediately.
3 Once this F2 prompt appears, 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 to display, and then press <F2>. If you
