More likely the bottom of the laptop. However the number that one needs for the Dell SupportAssist to work unless I'm mistaken can't be found externally - one has to extract it from the laptop. It is a unique 7-digit Serial Number. You get the number by typing the command line below into the cmd.exe of the computer/laptop:

Yes I'm mistaken. It will be the series name like "Inspiron" on mine. On the bottom of mine there is one "Sl No." on the stamp which is a 7 digit number. I am not sure if that is the one required for Dell SupportAssist to work.

Usually Dell has it printed just left side of Touch pad. But it disappear after a while. Dell doesn't put anything on Monitor I don't know about other brands. Anyway I prefer not to touch hardware of unscrew a laptop without a really big issue. Speccy is very tiny tool used even by professional hardware technicians. It has no ads or anything anything. I have been using it for more than 5 years so I know about it well. It's one of those software I always install when Setup a computer.

we have more other free choices. i personally like a very small and effective app Driver ID agent. with the short name of DevID agent. and totally free to search and install driver to your PC.
