Replace the hard drive, and then load Windows. Your drive has failed.
You need: any 2.5" 9.5 mm serial ATA notebook drive.

Reistalling the operating system might work, but at this point of time it seems the hard drive on your laptop is failing.
Try reinstalling the operating system.

dell hard drives seem to lack quality and are not very good. you could back up your files and try formating the hard drive and reinstalling.
