Entering System Setup POST Time Keystrokes Keystroke FunctionEnter System Setup

Use F2 to enter System Setup to make changes to the user-definable settings.

Boot Menu

As with previous OptiPlex™ platforms, this system includes a one-time boot menu. This feature gives users a quick and convenient mechanism to bypass the System Setup-defined boot device order and boot directly to a specific device (e.g., floppy, CD-ROM, or hard drive).

POST Time Keystrokes cont. Keystroke Function <Ctrl><Alt><F8>  One-time boot and diagnostics utility menu <F12> One-time boot and diagnostics utility menu
