If your computer runs Windows 8 or 10. You can download the ISO from Microsoft and burn it to DVD or install it on a Flash Drive. Then you can try repair options or perform a clean install of Windows. This has the added benefit of a vanilla Windows install without all the Dell bloatware.

If it came with Windows 8 or 10 it likely uses UEFI. So you will need to use RUFUS if you want to make a UEFI Bootable Flash Drive.
