Yes, we are being a bit thick aren't we. Sorry.
I like where writhziden is going. The typical Dell methods to invoke System Recovery on other systems is to press F10 or F11, and on some it is CTRL+F11.
You do this straight away - before the logo.
And if it were me I would be using the command prompt from System Recovery to root around inside that recovery partition to try and find an executable file, using DOS commands.
