Hi Jersa,If it just crashes while attempting to load windows.Either the OS is corrupted and needs to be either restored or re-installed.Or the hard drive needs to be replaced.You can try doing the Factory Restore/Recovery/Re-Installation by following the process below. However please note that doing this will reset literally your PC to defaults, meaning you will lose all files, programs and anything currently said on your PC. If you do not wish to lose any, having a computer tech backup and do it for you would be a good idea, otherwise you may proceed.you can follow the office guide from Dell here:http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?c=us&l=en&s=gen&docid=DSN_181316&isLegacy=trueor this.1 Turn on the computer. 2 When the Dell splash screen appears during the computer startup process, press and hold <Ctrl> and then press <F11>. Then, release both keys at the same time. 3 In the Dell PC Restore by Symantec window, click Restore. Alternatively, press <Tab> to highlight Restore, and then press <Enter>. 4 When a warning message appears stating that all data will be lost, click Confirm, or press <Tab> to highlight Confirm and then press <Enter>.The Progress window will appear. Once the restore process starts, Dell PC Restore by Symantec usually takes about 8 to 10 minutes to finish.When the restore process is complete, the following message will appear:The system recovery process was successful. 5 Click Finish or press <Tab> to highlight Finish and then press <Enter> to restart the computer.The software is now installed as it was when the computer was first received. Hope this helps.
