I had the same issue. After switching to ahci, windows did not boot
anymore. I think that back to Raid on did not make windows work any
better.
In AHCI, you can first reinstall windows if you want to keep it and then Fedora.
Windows can be downloaded on the windows site.

Be careful with the BIOS setup, the DELL support made me change some
things there and I had to reinstall F25. They also changed my mother
card 2 times and I had to reinstall F25 each time. It seems that there
is something in the BIOS that says "if not windows, crash the master
boot record".
