Optiplex 3010 problem

I recently was given a windows 7 pro dell optiplex 3010. It worked completely fine it just has a password on the account. I accessed the bios to reset the hard drive. To change the bios settings there is a password needed. I looked up how to reset this password and I found two things. I could either take out CMOS battery for 10-15 minutes or use the clear password jumper. I tried both and when I turn the computer on now their is a solid yellow light on the motherboard. Does anybody know what that means? How can I fix this?
