Part Numbers for a Dell System

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.dell (More info?)

For many of them, you can go to support.dell.com, enter your service tag
and choose "original configuration".

For others, you must look at the part itself.

The OP can refer to the original configuration online, and then fill in the
gaps by looking at the specific part concerned; on either a barcode label or
stamped/molded into the parts themselves will be the 5-digit Dell part
number (D/PN). On bar codes, this number will usually reside right in the
middle of label among other numbers to the left and right.
