That is what Staples said but with the problems I've been having and with what Dell said it is a corrupt boor sector (which is also another conclusion to code 0146). Cheapest way to remedy this...put al files on external hard drive, and going to try first to rewrite MBR and if that doesn't work, will uninsatll and then reinstall O/S, etc. I I still have the same problems I'm not going to get a new hard drive , I will get a new computer (Tower).

Hard drives are cheap ... in fact, if the drive is small enough, its contents may fit on an SSD.

Replace the hard drive. That error code means the drive is failing.
