Dell Latitude E6410 - start up issues

I opened the laptop up mainly to do some cleaning. I put everything back as I'd seen it but now it won't boot up. It'll go through the first loading screen, give me an odd battery screen, then say there was an error. I tried to boot it normally and it gave a blue screen. I ran the startup repair and it got stuck on attempting repairs.

Ran like 5 of those, 3 memory diagnostics. I've been at this all night. Did some stuff with the registry amd it got past the window's boot so I'm sure it's fine now.

F12 at powerup - run an extended diagnostic on the system.

If you didn't run the extended hard drive test (the quick one takes 10 min and is part of the basic diags;  the extended one takes several hours -- you have the extended option AFTER the quick tests complete) -- run the extended test on the hard drive.  This will test the hard drive media -- I strongly suspect you'll find bad sectors, meaning the drive needs replacement.
