After a BIOS update, now my system is terrible. Slow to start, slow to power off and everything is too slow.

Welcome to this free user to user Alienware laptop discussion forum. 

Could be bad installation of new BIOS version update. The BIOS installation instructions are very specific. Always download BIOS file to your laptop. Verify the checksum value of download BIOS file. Laptop must be powered by ac adapter and battery must have more than 10% charge, then Run as administrator to install BIOS file. 

Do not install BIOS update just because Dell posts a new update. Only install BIOS update if an application says it needs a BIOS update, or BIOS has an additional feature you want.
