Getting Started
If you need to set up your computer system yourself (rather than having it set up by a network administrator),
see "Getting Started" in the System Information Guide that accompanied your system for instructions on
connecting cables and turning on your system for the first time.
After you correctly connect all the cables to your system and turn it on, see the setup guide for your
operating system to complete its installation. When the operating system is installed, you can connect
peripheral devices such as a printer or install application programs not already installed by Dell.
