Yeah maybe, we contacted a Hardware Engineer, he told to clean the RAM, etc. If still does not works, then some issue with the motherboard.

Color me skeptical. Weird unexpected things happen, but I simply don't
see how removing a .bak file from a regular application, could break the
BIOS and cause machine check exceptions there. These things are at least
two or three steps apart (BIOS <-> OS <-> application).
It's far more likely this is just a traditional hardware issue. If you
search for "dell machine check error" you'll find plenty of similar
reports. I only checked a couple, but it's invariably some due to some
hardware issue.
