Dell Technical Support Policy
(U.S. Only)
Technician-assisted technical support requires the cooperation and
participation of the customer in the troubleshooting process and provides
for restoration of the operating system, software programs, and hardware
drivers to the original default configuration as shipped from Dell, as well as
the verification of appropriate functionality of the computer and all Dell-
installed hardware. In addition to this technician-assisted technical support,
online technical support is available at support.dell.com. Additional
technical support options may be available for purchase.
Dell provides limited technical support for the computer and any "Dell-
installed" software and peripherals

peripherals is provided by the original manufacturer, including those
purchased and/or installed through Dell Software and Peripherals,
Readyware, and Custom Factory Integration

Repair services are provided pursuant to the terms and conditions of your limited
warranty and any optional support service contract purchased with the

of the computer’s service contract.
