Dell Inspiron 531S: PC Won't boot up!

Thu, 17 Jul 2025 00:21:50 -0700

My cousin's Dell Desktop won't boot up to Vista. When he turns the machine on it goes into a black screen and says "Disk Error" It also states "diskette 0 seek failure" and to depress CTRL_ALT_DELETE to restart. I recommended this site to him for future reference cause he cannot access the web in order to get help and trouble-shoot himself. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
