    Welcome to WindowsBBS :)

    It seems fairly clear that your drive has failed .....
    there should be an explanation of code 7 accompanying the disk diagnostic software.

    These messages ......
    suggest to me that the hard drive has failed.

    If you have data on the drive which you have not backed up it may be possible to recover it if the drive is connected to another computer as a slave and is recognised by that computer.

    Your options are twofold ....

    You can try a clean install of XP with format which may be successful though I rather doubt it as the repair failed.

    Replace the hard drive.

    Try using native disk tools instead of Dells tools. Not knowing which manufactures drive is in your system:

    ExcelStore

    Fujitsu

    Hitachi/IBM

    Samsung

    Seagate, Maxtor, Quantum

    Western Digital


    According to a Dell technician, these are the error codes:
