You'll need to place a call to Dell support and have your verification information at hand. If the system is out of warranty, you'll also need a credit card - the call is not free if the warranty has expired.

If so, the most likely thing is that you have either a bad hard drive or a bad mainboard. You might want to try replacing the hard drive first. Before you do this, disconnect the hard drive, go into BIOS setup and CLEAR the hard drive password (enter the page where you change it, enter the password and then leave the two new password fields blank). Save and then see if a new hard drive solves the problem. If it does not, then the mainboard needs to be replaced.
