Hard drive error code 0146 200-1046

My inspiron1545 will not start up.  Running the diagnosics give the following message

Error code 0146  Msg: Error Code 2000 - 0146  Msg: Hard Drive 0 Self test  Log contains previous errors

From what I have been reading my Hard drive is broken and needs to be replaced.  Also I dont have any windows disks so can I get some from Dell.  I bought the laptop about 18 months ago.  Is that right

Thanks

Hi Nagoya,

You can order replacement Windows and other discs from here. You'll need those to reinstall the OS. And you'll need a new hard drive. Any standard SATA laptop drive should work.
