Changing Boot Sequence for the Current Boot
For example, you can use this feature to boot your computer from the CD drive so that you can run the Dell Diagnostics from the Driver and Utilities media and
then from the hard drive when the diagnostic tests are complete. You can also use this feature to boot your computer to a USB device such as a memory key,
or CD-RW drive.
1. If you are booting to a USB device, connect the USB device to a USB connector.
2. Turn on (or restart) your computer.
3. When the DELL logo appears, press <F12> immediately.
If you wait too long and the operating system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the Microsoft Windows desktop, then shut down your
computer and try again.
4. At the Boot Device Menu, use the up- and down- arrow keys or press the appropriate number on the keyboard to highlight the device that is to be
used for the current boot only, and then press <Enter>.
For example, if you are booting to a USB memory key, highlight USB Flash Device and press <Enter>.
