    You should be using Sonic RecordNow. Check in the programs file on the c: drive for a sonic folder (i think that's what it is listed under). See if there is an installation.ext or setup.exe file located there. If it is, you can use that repair Sonic.

    If not, call dell and request the Sonic CD. You'll receive it usually in 2 business days, & free of charge.

    Alternatively, you can go with another 3rd party software like Nero.
