You can find serial number of your notebook through any one of the means.

 

  1. The Service Tag(bardcoded sticker) can be found inside battery compartment of your notebook which would have serial number of your notebook
  2. Turn off Computer and once you power ON, keep pressing F10 key to load into BIOS screen and you can locate serial number in Main menu
  3. Turn off Computer and once you power ON, keep pressing ESC key to load startup menu. In startup menu you need to press F1 key to load System information
  4. Once you have logged into windows, Press FN + ESC key simulatenously to find a popup which shows system information of your notebook.

There was no serial number on the battery except the one for the battery.  I also tried number 2 and 3 method to no avail.  Could you give me an idea of how many numbers are in a serial number.  I have two numbers that are below 2 different bar codes and one number out to the right of a bar code.  Very confusing.  Is there a problem with putting the words "serial number" on the tag?  Sure would make it easier for the customer.
