You have hardware problems. Either contact Dell tech support, or take the machine to a local professional for a practical diagnosis. Do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place. If you want to try to troubleshoot the hardware yourself:

Computer Dell laptop of my husband has a virus that wants you to install a fake security program. I tried to fix it. OOPS. I tried to choose an earlier date to restore your computer to and I got zapped, crashed and burned. Error is now: winlogon.exe - bad image then the msgina.dll login user interface DLL failed to load, contact admin to replace the dll or restore the original dll. I don't have a boot cd. Is there a way of "back door" to get his computer works again?
As you know now, do a restore of the system on a severely infected machine is not a good thing. Better to save the data and do a clean installation of Windows. You can try to do it yourself, but based on your post, which I would not recommend it. I don't mean to hurt your feelings, just to be practical. It would be better to take the machine to a competent local tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).
If you really want to try it yourself, here's what you need to do:
1. start the computer with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix. You are using Linux, copy the data files on an external hard drive.
2. install Windows using the XP Dell installation CD.
3. install all the drivers for Dell. Use the Dell Resource CD or get the drivers from the Dell advance website.
4. switch to XP Service Pack 3 and do all the Windows updates.
5. install a good antivirus - NOD32 (commercial), Avast or Avira (both have free versions).
6. install all other desired programs, updated if necessary (especially if you have MS Office).
7. analyze data saved with the antivirus before you copy it to the new clean install. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic! -
Solaine Veera - why in the computer Dell laptop, Windows 7 Internet problems occur?
Hey,.
I'm Smayak Veera and work for a COMPUTER company in the United States.
I bought a Dell laptop for a few months now, and it is constantly with a watch "No Internet access" in the yellow icon. It is always the e-mail that I am connected but do not have access to the internet and I can not open Web pages, I own every connection and they are connected well. If I unplug the router and reconnect it works very well for 30-60 minutes but then I get the new icon.
Now, of course, I could just evey time turn off and re activate the connector wireless after every half hour but its boring and would rather it was fixed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Waiting for your quick response.
Kind regards
Solaine Veera
Always include the exact model number and the version of Windows in your messages. And if it's a laptop, next time post in the forum of the laptop .
If I understand correctly, you are using a wireless connection to the router. Have you checked the Windows settings to see if WiFi is turned off "to save energy? Look in device for an entry-level WiFi Manager and double-click it to open it. If there is a power management tab, click it and look for a box "allow the PC shuts off... "and uncheck the box. Then restart.
Can the router is having issues?
Have you checked with your ISP?

Hello.
Have an old dell desktop with XP.
Have a new computer dell laptop with Vista.Both came pre-installed.
Both came with a CD to reinstall Windows.Am I allowed to install Vista from that original CD on the desktop?
I did, then you have the problem (not genuine copy of Vista). I have since reinstalled Vista, but before I completely setting up the office, once again, I want to make sure that I am able to do this (do not want the new not genuine error).Specific questions:
1. am I allowed to use portable CD to install Vista on another computer?
2. If so, that must be done to ensure the "not genuine" error can't?Thanks for any help.

Reference Dell binds their records to their motherboards.
If your computer is pre-installed with Vista, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.
The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptopAnd a Vista license = a Vista Installation.
