Boot menu
Press <F12> when the Dell logo appears to initiate a one-time boot menu with a list of the valid boot devices for the system.
Diagnostics and BIOS Setup options are also included in this menu. The devices that are listed on the boot menu depend on the
bootable devices in the system. This menu is useful when you are attempting to boot to a particular device or to bring up the
diagnostics for the system. Using the boot menu does not make any changes to the boot order stored in the BIOS.
