As your computing environment changes, you may want to customize the configura-
tion of your computer. The system utilities and the Setup program let you control
various hardware and software features of your computer and allow you to monitor
and reduce power consumption when your computer is running on battery power.
This chapter explains how to access and use the system utilities and the Setup
program.

If Dell installed your operating system, the system utilities are on the hard-disk drive
that came with the computer.
NOTE: The system utilities are available separately on a CD for those who installed
their own version of the Microsoft Windows 98 operating system. To order this CD
from Dell, see Chapter 5, "Getting Help," for the appropriate telephone number in
your location.
