But if it was preinstalled by Dell then I'm SOL, I do have a OEM copy
(non-dell recovery disc) not being used, can I use that disc on the Dell
machine though?

Did the restore and ran the sfc after that point and I see these
errors. If I go further back will all my Microsoft apps have to be
reinstalled? (Office, Visual Studio)
