hello miss sally, hi, the operating system error may be caused by a faulty hard disk or hard disk connection cable, and the hanging thing is caused by a faulty memory module, so check then out first, swap a new memory module, and for your hard drive, take it out from your laptop and use a PC to test the drive (applicable only if your hard drive is sata.)

RY THIS FIRST Hold down FN KEY and POWER Button for 3 Secs to go in Diagnostics Mode (works on almost all Dell Laptops) and run the full test you'll find something wrong if its a internal issue (even if its a hard drive issues), see if that fixes it, but I'd check the CPU HS Fan (the slots where air comes out)just blow in there and you'll see dust come out, clean it out with Air Can or Air Hose at 60PSI to prevent it blowing your blades up on the fan. If its not a hard drive or cooling issue, might want to try the Memory check (Dell has laptops have memory issues from time to time) Hope this helps!
