Unplug the system, remove the battery and hold the power button for 30 sec. Reconnect the AC adapter and run the Dell diagnostics again. If you see the same error, it means the hard drive has failed and will need to be replaced.
Apparently I need a new hard drive. What is the proper hard drive for my Inspiron 1750?

Any 2.5" 7- or 9.5 mm SATA notebook drive will work.
