It is not letting me attempt to restore from a backup. I could try again though...

OK. What kind of backup are we talking about here?
A DVD backup. I thought the laptop had some sort of extra partition for a backup or something but I honestly don't know anything about that haha.

Are you booting from that DVD?
Your Dell should also have recovery partition, which you can access by pressing CTRL+F11 key at Dell's logo. You should have two choices: destructive and non-destructive recovery. The latter should keep your data alive.

Are you talking about Recovery DVD, you made, or the one, it came with your computer?

a recovery DVD I made. Should I give this non-destructive recovery a go?
