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 system setup settings. Certain changes might make your computer work incorrectly. 
Viewing the System Setup Screens
1 Turn on (or restart) your computer.
2 When the DELL™ logo appears, press <F2> immediately. If you wait too long and the 
Windows logo appears, continue to wait until you see the Windows desktop. Then shut down 
your computer and try again.
System Setup Screens
 
NOTE: 
For information about a specific item on a system setup screen, highlight the item and see the 
Help area on the screen.
On each screen, the system setup options are listed at the left. To the right of each option is the 
setting or value for that option. You can change settings that appear as white type on the screen. 
Options or values that you cannot change (because they are determined by the computer) appear 
less bright.
The upper-right corner of the screen displays help information for the currently highlighted option; 
the lower-right corner displays information about the computer. System-setup key functions are 
listed across the bottom of the screen.
Commonly Used Options
Certain options require that you reboot the computer for new settings to take effect.
Changing the Boot Sequence
The 
boot sequence, or boot order, tells the computer where to look to find the software needed to 
start the operating system. You can control the boot sequence and enable/disable devices using the 
Boot Order page of system setup.
