Failed Short Short SMART Self Test on XPS 420 (2008) Model

I have been wondering on how to download a WIA driver for my SP2009w Dell Monitor for my webcam that is apart of the monitor itself... because, I get an error message that tells me to reinstall the CD software but that does not fix it.  I don't have a problem when I need my Webcam, I just can't access the webcam say for example when I am on "teamviewer" when I am remoting into my sister's computer to fix her issues.  I am in no way an expert but I do know how to "dig" and research on issues online.  The Dell website says when the smart test failed that I needed to order a new hard drive because since my computer was purchased in late 2008 that it is now operating outside its normal parameters.  Are they just trying to buy something since I really don't have a problem with viruses and junk ware? My computer works fine.  I installed Windows Defender and maintain daily scans; I also have "revo-uninstaller" , (not the pro version) free ware which helps in cleaning registries of unwanted software embedded.  I keep my firewall setting at recommended levels.  I have never have a serious spyware or malware problem either.  I go online, have facebook and shop online; do business online?? Any ideas?  [Admin note: Email address removed per TOU]
