Dell™ OptiPlex™ XE —

Broadcom TruManage allows you to automate common tasks and identify and 
monitor the hardware and thermal failures on your Dell OptiPlex XE from a 
remote, centralized location. You can monitor the status of your computer 
through the Dell Client Manager (DCM) version 3.0 or higher.

TruManage is pre-installed on your computer. However, you need to enable and 
set it up to use it.
