On the computer motherboard locate the BIOS clear / password jumper or dipswitch and change its position. Once this jumper has been changed turn on the computer and the password should by cleared. Once cleared turn the computer off and return the jumper or dipswitch to its original position. Hope this works, if not try and contact Dell themselves.

According to the User's Guide for this computer, you must call Dell Technical Support to get the password reset. You will need to provide proof of ownership before they will help you.
