The best answer is to go to the Dell web site and find out more about that model.
http://support.dell.com/support/

 Here on this site there is some general information about lost passwords. The CH forum does not provide details on how to hack strong password systems.

There are some commercial programs that claim to work. But these and not endorsed by the CH forum
