back into the BIOS and saved the settings after you made the changes.

Sometimes random lockups can be attributed to the computer memory starting to fail. You can test the memory by running Windows Memory Diagnostic that can be downloaded from http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp. If memory problems are found, try re-seating the RAM. If it doesn't work, replace the defective RAM.

You said you just procured, then your Machine may be under warranty. Contact DELL support. If the machine is newly procured then DELL will also have first time installation clause.
