    I'm not 100% sure, but if you look on the bottom of your laptop, you'll see an area that is a black sticker and has a bunch of writing on it. On there or at least on mine, there is a silver part with a bar code and several number. I think that is your s/n but again I'm not 100% sure.

    You might contact Dell to verify which it is.

    Getting back to the main topic now - see here:

    That white strip in the middle (vertical) is the one that has the Service Tag and Express Service Code. Are you looking for the Service Tag? That could be mistaken for the S/N.
