Hi @myamiami ,
More info is needed. Could you please upload a photo of the screen?
At what point are you getting a long bar on the screen - When you first start it; if you try to access BIOS; etc.?
Your subject line says "system password," but is it for sure asking for one? If it's asking for a password when you try to enter BIOS, there's what's called a password jumper on the MB. Follow instructions in link carefully. https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000126390/how-to-use-the-jumper-to-reset-the-bios-password-on-your-dell-desktop-computer
