Re-install of Win 95 stops when "hard drive has errors" go

Hi everyone! This is my second question to you all in about two years and I hope you can help me out as you have before. A week ago I received from my sister a used Dell machine that she used to own. Before she gave it to me she srubbed the hard drive of everything on it. This wiped out Win 95 in addition to everything else. She gave me the boot disk and CD-Rom for re-installation of 95. The computer is a Pentium 2 machine from Dell. I started the installation and everything went smoothly until scan disk swept the system and found "errors on my hard drive", correct errors then resume installing. I have no idea how I can check and correct these errors. I am not terribly computer literate and I am at a loss. Can anyone give me suggestions how to cure this problem and move on with the installation?? Any help would most gratefully be appreciated. Thanks in advance...John
