Documentation Updates
Documentation updates are sometimes included with your computer to describe changes to your computer or software. Always read these updates before
consulting any other documentation because the updates contain the latest information.
Readme files, which may be installed on your hard drive or located on CDs such as the Drivers and Utilities CD, provide last-minute updates about technical
changes to your computer or advanced technical reference material intended for experienced users or technicians.

The Drivers and Utilities CD contains drivers and utilities, the Dell Diagnostics, and user's guides for your computer and optional devices. Dell ships your
computer to you with required drivers and utilities already installed—no further installation or configuration is needed. If you ever need to reinstall a driver or
utility, run diagnostics tests on your computer, or access the user's guides, use the Drivers and Utilities CD. See Dell Support at support.dell.com for more
information.
