Dead computer. :/ by RoraJoey2007-10-08 03:48:43
  Try knoppix to safe your files :) by Buzzin 2007-10-08 04:36:25
I just did that on my colleagues 'puter.
Some weird hardware failure causes windows to mess up.
So safe files, pave, reinstall....crash...call dell :(

ps. I know win98/95/me had the repair install option, 2k and xp don't do it....even if you try. Just nuke & pave as you said.
You might want to try a 'fixmbr' or 'fixboot' in the repair console....very small chance that might work
