Well, more progress!
Bypassing the Dell diagnostics for the present. Ran chkdsk. First pass detected something like 75,000 items in (I think) step 2.
Second pass - about 30 min - was clean. And disk free space increased about 0.4 gb.
Looked at eventvwr log - app directory had 1616 events, dating back to 2009.
Do I leave them, or clear them?
I was unable to find "windows logon" in the right (show action pane) (actions) panel. What does this one do?
A couple more snags: unable to read a couple of items.
https://vimeo.com/101647637 gives me a message: "Aw Shucks. This video cannot be played with your current setup".
Another site - can't find it just now - says I couldn't play an MP4 (?) file.
Device Manager shows 6 items in the sound/video/game slot:
Audio Codecs
Legacy audio drivers
Legacy Video Capture devices
Media control Devices
SoundMax integrated digital audio
Video Codecs.
Not sure whether these are relevant.
Comments?
