Access System Setup by pressing F2 key

Bring up the one-time boot menu by pressing F12 key
The one-time boot menu displays the devices that you can boot from including the diagnostic option. The boot menu options are:
•
Removable Drive (if available)
•
STXXXX Drive

XXX denotes the SATA drive number.
•
Optical Drive (if available)
•
SATA Hard Drive (if available)

The boot sequence screen also displays the option to access the System Setup screen.

During POST, when the DELL logo is displayed, watch for the F2 prompt to appear, and then press F2 immediately.
NOTE:
The F2 prompt indicates that the keyboard is initialized. This prompt can appear very quickly, so you must watch for
it, and then press F2. If you press F2 before the F2 prompt, this keystroke is lost. If you wait too long and the operating
system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the desktop. Then, turn off your computer and try again.
