Also here are the steps to get into the BIOS:
1. Turn on (or restart) your computer.
2.  When the blue DELL" logo appears, press 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.
