When I start my Dell laptop it boots up but only as far as the Windows logo. MY IT people tell me to bin it, but I am relucatant to do this.

Any suggestions on what the problem might be and of a possible resolution

Have you tried F8 and then the diagnostic boot mode? You can then report where it stops (at which .SYS file).
