your Express Service Code) and click Submit. If you don't have your service tag or
Express Service Code available, you can also select support information by system.
Everything you need to know about your system is presented on the system support
page, including the following tools and information:
Technical information — Details on every aspect of your system, including hard-
ware specifications.
Self-diagnostic tool — A system-specific troubleshooting application for resolving
many computer-related issues by following interactive flowcharts.
Drivers, files, and utilities — The latest drivers and basic input/output system
(BIOS) updates to keep your system functioning at its best.

ing tips for different system components.
Online Communications Center — Tool for submitting requests for both technical
