    You might want to think twice before you reset your unspecified version of IE...

    This from Microsoft KB923737:

    When you reset Internet Explorer settings, all modules and customizations are removed, and basically, you start with a new version of Internet Explorer.

    The feature reset the Internet Explorer settings restores the following elements to their default settings:

    • Home pages
    • Search scopes
    • Browsing history
    • Form data
    • Passwords
    • Appearance settings
    • Toolbars
    • ActiveX controls

    In addition, the feature reset the settings of Internet Explorer disables all add-ins.

    This is what will happen if you choose to reset your IE - what do you want?

    If you receive script debugging messages, which usually means that IE is not happy with the web page, because the web page has some mistakes in there, then you may want see if this article applies to you instead of just beating a first all your Internet Explorer settings:

    Hi, Dr.,

    Volumes that contain file system errors are known as Sales. To indicate that a file system problem has occurred and that the volume is dirty, Windows XP Professional displays a message similar to the following when you try to open, delete, or rename a file or folder by using Microsoft Windows Explorer or the command prompt:

    Autochk runs if the volume is marked as modified.

    If the file system has marked the volume as dirty, Autochk runs the Startup Repair process. Volumes are marked as dirty, when the file system detects an error on the volume. If Autochk detects a dirty volume, it provides a delay of 10 seconds, and then starts the repair process. If you cancel Autochk when a volume is dirty, Autochk tries to run again after a 10 second delay every time the computer is restarted.

    See Chkdsk for all the necessary explanations:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457122.aspx

    Run the Dell Diagnostics to check the drive failure.  If the disc is a failure, it must be replaced.
