Computer will not boot up.
My Dell Inspiron M5030 will not boot up. I managed to run a diagnostic and it's telling me that the SATA disk is bad.Two questions;does that sound kosher? And is it hard to do?

Hi Chazz0441,
Yes, that seems to be the problem.
It's relatively easy to replace the hard drive. I found this YouTube video for you. Any SATA laptop hard drive will work. Once you've installed the new drive, follow the link below for reinstalling Windows.
