If you think you put the wrong bios on then reflash the correct one.

I will reinstall your OS (Operating System) and that will automatically re update the boot and system files or if that does not work, I would send it to Dell for a repair.

The problem is, I have 4 drives in my computer, I have a hyper drive, a backupdrive a ssd and a Raid Drive. I think I need to send it to dell.

There is a saying in tech support if it works don't touch it. But since you did. Re-flash your bios to the version for your laptop.
