Inspiron M5040

My computer is about a year old. When I turn it on, it will Go to the home screen & then it will go to a blue screen with a message that says a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to the computer. Technical Information: STOP: 0x0000007E How can I fix this so I can get back on to use my computer?

Press F12 at powerup and boot to the Dell diagnostics. Run an extended system test.

Most likely, it's a bad hard drive.

this morning it did the same thing. It started to load everything & then

went to the blue screen again with a message saying a problem has been detected

& windows has shut down to prevent damage to the computer.
