I just stumbled on these S. MD forums...

I have an old (6 yrs) Dell Dimension 4700 desktop, which until 3 weeks ago was pretty much just a storage/back-up for a much newer laptop. It all but died when I tried to upgrade from IE-7 to IE-8 (via MS.com Downloads option).

The B.B. Geeks said I needed to contact Dell to score a "Restore Disk" at about $80. Do I have any other options? Thanks in advance. D-35 ;-)
