Before You Call
NOTE: Have your Express Service Code ready when you call. The code helps Dell’s
automated-support telephone system direct your call more efficiently.
Remember to fill out the Diagnostics Checklist. If possible, turn on your
computer before you call Dell for technical assistance and call from a
telephone at or near the computer. You may be asked to type some
commands at the keyboard, relay detailed information during operations, or
try other troubleshooting steps possible only at the computer itself. Ensure
that the computer documentation is available.
