Using the System Setup Program

Overview

NOTE:

Your operating system may automatically configure most of the options available in the system

setup program, thus overriding options that you set through the system setup program. For more
information on configuring features for your operating system, see the Help and Support Center. To
access help, see page 9.

The system setup screens display the current setup information and settings for your computer,
such as:

System configuration

Boot order

Boot (start-up) configuration and docking-device configuration settings

Basic device configuration settings

System security and hard-drive password settings

NOTICE:

Unless you are an expert computer user or are directed to do so by Dell technical support,

do not change the settings for the system setup program. Certain changes might make your computer
work incorrectly.
