Understanding UEFI Booting Path
I have an XPS 27 and I am trying to learn in advance how to boot a USB stick with recovery media in the event I need to reinstall the OS. Its not obvious as how you enable USB boot. Changin to legacy boot is an option. Is there a tutorial?

You change to Legacy so that you can spam F12 and choose the USB Device. It is recommended that you use the rear ports to boot usb as the front ports may only provide 100ma per port.

"Error 0x4001100200001005 if problem persists contact Dell support".
The reason you get Error 0x4001100200001005 is because the OEM hard drive was replaced with a retail hard drive. OEM drives are "tattooed" or branded and the DELL recovery media will search for it before installing. This is also why you cannot clone Dell Drives to new blank hard drives.
