[Ham-Computers] Computer Help Needed

[Jim Hill]

Did you try System Recovery?  Control Panel> System and Security (Find and
Fix Problems) Recovery (lower left corner of screen)?  There are other
approaches to get to this area, but I'm away from home using a Fujitsu
laptop so can't look them up.  All my computers except this one are Dell.

Also Dell has Forums where people post problems. See
http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/

I have received help from the forums in the past.
