Reinstallation Software XPS 8920
I replaced the hard drive and was going to do a clean install but the download of reinstall OS software was not avaliable for me any more. when I had the Black face 8920 I did install it onto the USB Stick.
This one xps 8920 SE says no available. Very disappointed. Miss the days when they used to send DVD's with all the reinstall software.
How can I get DELL reinstall software for a XPS 8920 Special Edition Silver Face Desktop?
Please don't tell me I have to buy it thats not Write, That would ***.

Use the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool Available from Microsoft. It will give Windows 10 Version 1709 Installation Media which will work with all Dell Windows 7/8/8.1 and 10 OEM Licenses and is more up to date than any obsolete Windows Images offered by Dell:

n2rga73,
Can you select the Other Device option and add your system service tag? Also, if that does not work contact Dell Support by phone at 1-800-624-9897 to have them send you a usb key with the OS on it to install Windows.
