Well, I rebooted into command prompt safe mode and ran CHKDSK/F. It came back and said it couldn't run now because it was being used and asked if I wanted to schedule it for the next reboot and I said yes. I rebooted my PC and this is what came up:
>A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps:
check to be sure you have adequat disk space. If a driver is identified in the stop message, disable the driver or check with the manufacture for driver updates. Try changing the vido adapters.
Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options and then select safe mode.

If have no idea what to do next. Does this mean I have a problem with my hard drive? I got this message everytime I restarted the computer until I cancelled the chkdsk/f.
HELP!! If it's a disk problem, will a reformat even fix this problem? BTW, Dell has release two BIOS updates in the last couple weeks and I just installed the latest one yesterday hoping that would get rid of this problem.
