NO didn't do anything like that. Just wierd that Device Manager>>scan for hardware changes did not bring them back.

No I went to Hard drive properties>>tools>>check now>>Put checks in both boxes and restarted.

Clusters are groups of sectors is what I read. So if there were bad clusters then why didn't I get a msg saying that I had so many KB of bad sectors instead of 0 kb in bad sectors. Is the Event...

Ok, well at this point it is done and I chose Raid Autodetect/ATA. I don't really understand RAID that much but I do have a perfect dual boot. So did I choose wrong?

I don't use Dell recovery media. I just install Windows from my retail CDs. So maybe we'll find someone that will know.
