Definitely contact Royan, and verify ownership. There are many ways to bypass a bios password, including the all to fun disassembling and shortpin 2 and 6.
However, most methods run a pretty good risk of bricking your system, and it is definitely worth the cost to have dell do it for you. May not even have to send it in, as, I believe, after three attempts it will prompt you with some info to call in and request a specific override password from Dell.

You need to call Dell and verify your ownership of the system. They'll then assist with the removal of the password.
There is a charge for the service if the system is out of warranty.
