do you have the cd for the OS, if you have, insert the cd and restart your system, on the dell logo press F2 for BIOS setup, then change the boot sequence to CD/DVD ROM-should be the first one. The CD/DVD ROM will read the OS cd. Choose 'r' for repair, Just follow the instruction on the screen. Now, if this TS step didn't work worse case scenario is that yu need to do a system restore or reinstall the OS. If you have important files that you need, try to back them up, Burn them on a cd/dvd.mitchsarroca
