What operating system does this laptop come with?

Troubleshooting

Laptop will not power on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds. If the issue persists, try a different power outlet.

Wi-Fi connection is unstable or not connecting

Restart your router and modem. In Windows, go to Settings > Network & internet > Wi-Fi, toggle Wi-Fi off and then on again. You can also try updating the Wi-Fi driver through Device Manager.

Display is dim or flickering

Check display brightness settings in Windows. Ensure the display drivers are up-to-date by visiting the Dell support website for your specific model. Avoid using the laptop in excessively bright environments if the screen brightness is insufficient.

Slow performance or applications freezing

Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Check Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) for resource-heavy processes. Ensure your system has enough free storage space and consider running a disk cleanup utility.

Install any available Windows updates to ensure optimal performance and security.
