First, ensure your laptop is ready to start.

Step 2: Windows Initial Setup
Once powered on, the laptop will guide you through setting up the Windows operating system on the screen.
- Follow the instructions on the screen carefully to navigate through the setup process.
- Connect to your network (like Wi-Fi) to proceed with online parts of the setup.
- Sign in to your Microsoft account or create a new account when prompted to finish the setup and personalize your Windows experience.
Step 3: Accessing Dell Software and Registration
