CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the
Product Information Guide.
CAUTION: Handle components and cards with care. Do not touch the components or contacts on a
card. Hold a card by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a processor
by its edges, not by its pins.
NOTICE: Only a certified service technician should perform repairs on your computer. Damage due to
servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty.
NOTICE: When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief loop, not on the cable
itself. Some cables have a connector with locking tabs; if you are disconnecting this type of cable, press
in on the locking tabs before you disconnect the cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep them evenly
aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable, ensure that both
connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.
NOTICE: To avoid damaging the computer, perform the following steps before you begin working inside
the computer.
Ensure that the work surface is flat and clean to prevent the computer cover from being
scratched.
Turn off your computer (see page 85).
NOTICE: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your computer and then unplug it
from the network wall jack.
Disconnect any telephone or telecommunication lines from the computer.
Disconnect your computer and all attached devices from their electrical outlets, and then
press the power button to ground the system board.
NOTICE: To connect a network cable, first plug the cable into the network wall jack and then plug it into
the computer.
Remove any installed PC Cards from the PC Card slot.
Close the display and turn the computer upside down on a flat work surface.
NOTICE: To avoid damaging the system board, you must remove the main battery before you service the
computer.

Using the System Setup Program
Overview
NOTE: Your operating system may automatically configure most of the options available in system setup,
thus overriding options that you set through system setup. (An exception is the External Hot Key option,
which you can disable or enable only through system setup.) For more information on configuring
features for your operating system, see the Help and Support Center.
The system setup screens display the current setup information and settings for your computer,
such as:
106
•
System configuration
•
Boot order
•
Boot (start-up) configuration
Appendix
D5813bk0.book Page 107 Monday, June 7, 2004 11:39 AM
•
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
Turn on (or restart) your computer.
When the DELL™ logo appears, press  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.
System-setup key functions are listed across the bottom of the screen. The first screen of the
system setup displays the system information.
Commonly Used Options
Any changes 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.
NOTE: To change the boot sequence on a one-time-only basis, see "Performing a One-Time Boot" on
page 108.
The Boot Order page displays a general list of the bootable devices that may be installed in your
computer, including but not limited to the following:
•
USB FDD
•
USB Memory
•
IDE HDD
•
USB HDD
Appendix

www.dell.com | support.dell.com
D5813bk0.book Page 108 Monday, June 7, 2004 11:39 AM
•
IDE CDROM
•
PCI LAN
During the boot routine, the computer starts at the top of the list and scans each enabled device
for the operating system start-up files. When the computer finds the files, it stops searching and
starts the operating system.
To change the order of the boot devices:
Select (highlight) a device by pressing the down-arrow or up-arrow key.
Then press the + key to move the selection up the list or the - key to move it down the list.
Boot sequence changes take effect as soon as you save the changes and exit system setup.
Performing a One-Time Boot
You can set a one-time-only boot sequence without entering system setup. (You can also use this
procedure to boot the Dell Diagnostics on the diagnostics utility partition on your hard drive.)
Shut down the computer through the Start menu.
Connect the computer to an electrical outlet.
Turn on the computer. When the DELL logo appears, press  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.
When the boot device list appears, highlight the device from which you want to boot and
press .
The computer boots to the selected device.
The next time you reboot the computer, the previous boot order is restored.
