XPS 11 SSD "Repairing disk errors"
I would appreciate any help from the group.
My 2 year old Dell XPS 11 recently started giving me errors. When i power it on, I get the message "Repairing disk errors - This might take over an hour to fix. " I let this go for 24 hours and nothing happened! I used the F12 to use BIOS diagnostics and ALL the tests pass with NO errors.
I have no idea how to proceed. I cant get to the windows recovery/safeboot to attempt a reset or a recovery. Should I purchase a new mSATA SSD? If so, how do I get the Dell windows 10 image for this laptop?
See attached photos of the diagnostics screen results. goo.gl/.../8Ze6CrRbyyWsFzo78

When I power my laptop, I see the Dell logo flash for a couple of seconds. Even though I have the shift key pressed, nothing happens. The next thing I see is the windows logo with "Preparing Automatic Repair", A couple of seconds later it changes to "Diagnosing your PC". and couple of seconds later "repairing disk errors. This might take over an hour to complete". I have left it in this state overnight and I havent seen anything change. I then long press the power button to shut down the laptop. When I power it back up the next time, it shows a different message. it says "Scanning and repairing dive c: 0% complete. " and the counter never moves past 0%. Each time I power off and power on, it cycles through these two different set of screens.

At what point in the boot process do you see the "Repairing disc error" message?
Have you tried booting to a command prompt (hold the shift key thorough bootup) and running a chkdsk c: /f ?
