Assuming you boot from the raid, as it is enabled...
Well your CMOS battery needs replacement, which reset your bios to it's defaults. Get a wafer battery from RadioShack, after replacement, there should be an option to set the boot order, the Lsi boot array should be in the list.
If you can not get it going, call Dell, they have free support, even for older servers.

Dear Technome,

Thanks to answer...

I Changed the BIOS battery but still no luck, same error is showing you have any more idea about that one.

Have you removed all unnecessay devices connect to mobo, remove CDrom, floppy, get a different mouse and keyboard. If you have multiple ram sticks, remove half of them, try and boot, if no go remove the present ram, swap in the removed ram and try; if you have compatible ram from another machine, try that.
Pull battery and unplug, leave in that state for a few hours, then reverse.
Open case, check for bulging/leaking capacitors.
