System Setup Program: Dell Inspiron 3800 System Reference
The System Setup screens display the current setup and configuration information and optional settings
for your computer. Information on the screens is organized in five boxed areas:
Title
The box at the top of all screens lists the page number, system name, and version number of the
basic input/output system (BIOS).
Options
The box on the left half of screens 1, 2, and 4 lists options that define the installed hardware in
your computer and the power conservation and security features for your computer.
Fields next to the options contain settings or values. You can change those values that appear
bright on the screen. Options or values that you cannot change (because they are determined or
calculated by the computer) appear less bright.
Help
The box on the upper-right half of screens 1, 2, and 4 displays help information for the option
with a currently highlighted field.
Computer data
The box in the lower-right corner of screens 1, 2, and 4 displays information about your
computer.
Key functions
The line of boxes across the bottom of all screens lists keys and their functions within the System
Setup program.
