There is nothing wrong with your ram,hard drive, operating system.

OK, here's what I just ordered:
-2.66 GHz Core 2 Quad Processor Q9400
-Radeon HD 4850 512 MB DDR3 PCle Graphics card

Look good?

Same graphics card I have, it will be fine.

I found the answer to my problem! By any chance have any of you bought
your pc from DELL recently if so this may help if not it still may
help....

"It is a Dell article but annoyingly doesn't mention the error code so
is not so easy to find. Take care to download the correct version of the
code for your Windows version, for me it was ENU (vcredist_x86.exe)
which is for English 32 bit." once at this page follow the "solution"
instructions and voila!

The above answer was submitted on a dell community forum site. Cheers
to the original sender Nickhay!
