Since you have not given any specifics on which Dell you have, I am
copy/pasting 'entering setup' instructions for a number of Latitudes @ the
Dell site:
--Latitude C, CP, and CS Series Systems
Restart your computer.
At the first text on the screen, or the Dell logo, press the <F2> key every
three seconds until the message Entering Setup appears.
Press the <Esc> key to save changes.
--Latitude L Series Systems
Restart your computer.
At the first text on the screen, or the Dell logo, press the <F2> key every
three seconds until the message Entering Setup appears.
When the System Setup screen appears, press the <F9> key.
Press the <F10> key to save changes and exit.
--Legacy Latitude Systems (XPI, XPI CD Series)
Restart your computer.
At the first text on the screen, or the Dell logo, press the <Fn> + <F1>
keys simultaneously every three seconds until the message Entering Setup
appears.
Press the <Esc> key to save changes.

need to have explicit instructions to change the BIOS. Never been there
before. Thank you for your prompt reply to my question.
Peace,
