You want to remove Fedora and do what? Install Windows on it instead? If that's what you want to do, you (probably) don't need a password. Though I haven't installed Windows on anything in over 10 years so I can't give you specific directions, you should be able to just boot the computer off of the Windows installation disk and install it on the hard drive using the default settings that the installer suggests to you. (In other words, just keep hitting the OK button or answering Y.) That will overwrite the Fedora partition. The only way you should need a password to do this is if the bios is password protected. That's nothing to do with the operating system, though. If that's the case you may or may not be able to recover the password using some Dell utility.
