Solved!
Go to SolutionInability to boot -- Incorrect BIOS password
Power went out, came back, and then my system started displaying this after the Dell logo
Type the system password and press
Even though I had no password on the system before, and I can't even go to Boot Menu with F12 or any other thing.
And the supposed default password "Dell" didn't work as well.
Can I get some help please ?
I'm using a Dell Optiplex 760 on a Windows 7 Professional

Near the main power connector on the system board is a jumper (blue, usually). Power off, remove it, and power on. That will clear the password. You can then power off and replace the jumper where it started, and the system will be clear of the POP.
