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. (An exception is the External Hot Key option, which you
can disable or enable only through the system setup program.) For more information
on configuring features for your operating system, click Start (or Start in
Windows
®
XP) → Help and Support.
You can use the system setup program as follows:
• To set or change user-selectable features—for example, your Tablet-PC
password
• To verify information about the Tablet-PC's current configuration, for
example, the amount of system memory
After you set up the Tablet-PC, run the system setup program to familiarize
yourself with your system configuration information and optional settings.
You may want to write down the information for future reference.
The system setup screens display the current setup information and settings
for your Tablet-PC, 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
NOTE:
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 Tablet-PC work incorrectly.
