If you use this disc any information on the laptop which you wish to keep should be backed up, as all information on the laptop will be LOST! Yes, go to the F12 menu, and you should have the option to boot from the CD, which will invoke the Windows Boot Menu, then just follow the information on screen.

Usually these disks are called Recovery Disks, or Reinstallation disks. These usually contain the Windows XP or Vista operating system. Normally Dell ships out that CD with new computers. It should be green or purple CD. If you don't have that CD you cannot reinstall your computer like it was new. You should contact Dell and see if you can order an OEM Windows disk. They shouldn't charge you much if you already have your original product number (printed on a shiny sticker taped to the computer). Just explain to them what you are trying to do.
