ok!

On the Toshiba Satellite A70, this is a *** Hardware Problem ***

I found an article on how to disassemble this baby (why are laptops so hard to take apart?) and when I got down to the cpu cooler, there were a couple of large gray dust bunnies snarling and yappping at me.

I used up most of a can of dust-off (R) and reassembled with new heat sink goop and my first test was to copy over my Music directory... which succeeded!!!

So I am blithely assuming something similar is true with the Dell, and one day I will disassemble it for cleaning as well.
