peripherals.
Before Setting Up Your Computer
When positioning your computer, ensure that
you allow easy access to a power source,
adequate ventilation, and a level surface to
place your computer.
Restricting airflow around your Inspiron
laptop may cause it to overheat. To prevent
overheating ensure that you leave at least
10.2 cm (4 in) at the back of the computer and a
minimum of 5.1 cm (2 in) on all other sides. You
should never put your computer in an enclosed
space, such as a cabinet or drawer when it is
powered on.
WARNING: Do not block, push objects into,
or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents.
Do not store your Dell™ computer in a
low-airflow environment, such as a closed
briefcase, while it is running. Restricting
the airflow can damage the computer or
cause a fire.
CAUTION: Placing or stacking heavy or
sharp objects on the computer may result
in permanent damage to the computer.

• Check your wireless router to ensure it is
powered on and connected to your data
source (cable modem or network hub).
• Interference may be blocking or interrupting
your wireless connection. Try moving the
computer closer to your wireless router.
28
• Check the cable to ensure it is plugged in
and not damaged.
The link integrity light on the integrated network
connector lets you verify that your connection is
working and provides information on the status:
• Green — A good connection exists between
a 10-Mbps network and the computer.
Solving Problems
• Orange — A good connection exists between
a 100-Mbps network and the computer.
• Off — The computer is not detecting a
physical connection to the network.
NOTE: The link integrity light on the network
connector is only for the wired cable

provide status for wireless connections.
Power Problems
If the power light is off — The computer is
either turned off or is not receiving power.
• If the computer is plugged into a power strip,

Restoring Your Operating System
You can restore your operating system in the
following ways:
• System Restore returns your computer to an
earlier operating state without affecting data
files. Use System Restore as the first solution
for restoring your operating system and
preserving data files.
• Dell Factory Image Restore returns your hard
drive to the operating state it was in when
you purchased the computer. This procedure
permanently deletes all data on the hard
drive and removes any programs installed
after you received the computer. Use Dell
Factory Image Restore only if System
Restore did not resolve your operating
system problem.
• If you received an Operating System disc
with your computer, you can use it to restore
your operating system. However, using the
38
Operating System disc also deletes all data
on the hard drive. Use the disc only if System
Restore did not resolve your operating
system problem.
System Restore
The Windows operating systems provide
a System Restore option which allows
you to return your computer to an earlier
operating state (without affecting data files)
if changes to the hardware, software, or other
system settings have left the computer in an
undesirable operating state. Any changes that
System Restore makes to your computer are
completely reversible.
CAUTION: Make regular backups of your
data files. System Restore does not monitor
your data files or recover them.

Operating System Reinstallation
Before you Begin
If you are considering reinstalling the Windows
operating system to correct a problem with a
newly installed driver, first try using Windows
Device Driver Rollback. If Device Driver
Rollback does not resolve the problem, then use
System Restore to return your operating system
to the operating state it was in before you
installed the new device driver. See “System
Restore” on page 38.
CAUTION: Before performing the
installation, back up all data files on your
primary hard drive. For conventional hard
drive configurations, the primary hard drive
is the first drive detected by the computer.
To reinstall Windows, you need the following
items:
• Dell Operating System media
• Dell Drivers and Utilities media
43
Restoring Your Operating System
NOTE: The Dell Drivers and Utilities media

Dell Drivers and Utilities media to load any
required drivers. Depending on the region
from which you ordered your computer,
or whether you requested the media,
the Dell Drivers and Utilities media and
Operating System media may not ship with
your computer.
Reinstalling Windows
The reinstallation process can take 1 to 2 hours
to complete. After you reinstall the operating
system, you must also reinstall the device
drivers, virus protection program, and other
software.
NOTE: Your computer may or may not have
an optical drive. Use an external optical
drive or any external storage device for the
procedures that involve media.
1. Save and close any open files and exit any
open programs.
44
2. Insert the Operating System disc.
3. Click Exit if the Install Windows message
appears.
4. Restart the computer.
5. When the DELL logo appears, press

NOTE: If you wait too long and the
operating system logo appears, continue to
wait until you see the Microsoft® Windows®
desktop; then, shut down your computer
and try again.
NOTE: The next steps change the boot
sequence for one time only. On the next
