download and run that cd i linked in my post (page 1 post 10) this should alllow you to backup data, then run a chkdsk whilst running off the CD, then run a reciovery...

well, thats what i'd do...

and yes, if you send it dell for repair, the first thing they'll most likely do is restore the HDD to factory settings - wiping all your data in the process.
