Hi wdroberts,

SSE Test Module Failed to Start indicates the "SSE instruction failed". You can close all the applications. Restart your computer and re-run the diagnostics. For more information on this, you can refer the link: http://dell.to/XSqw9H 

You can also run onboard diagnostics on your computer to check the system hardware functionality by following the steps below:

  • Please restart the system.
  • As soon as you see the blue Dell logo, start tapping the ‘F12’ key which is at the top of the keyboard.

Note: If you wait too long and the Microsoft Windows appears, then continue to wait until you see the Windows desktop. Now shutdown your computer and try again.

  • After tapping ‘F12’ key then a new window would appear. Now using the down arrow key, highlight the “Boot to utility partition”.

Note: (If Boot to the Utility partition option is not there then you will have a “Diagnostics” option to select which starts the diagnostics directly.)

  • Hit Enter to initiate diagnostics and make a note of error code if any.

For more information on this, you can refer to link: http://dell.to/OUGnqT 

Please share the findings.
