I don't know your system, but it's normally one of F1, F2, F8, F10 F12
or Del. Sometimes its Ctrl + F2. Sorry I can't be more help! Its trial
and error unless somebody else here knows this system.

Call Dell support..

And do not update your bios unless you have no other option left to you..

When you first turn-on your Dell computer,
press the Delete key to open the BIOS.

It should be F2 whilst (and only whilst) that message is on the screen.
If you hammer it, Dell's will normally beep after the first 5 or so
hits.
