I have this old Dell laptop that I've almost given up on because it's just so slow. It's using a hard drive, and I often get a red screen. After a really long wait, it kinda works again, but the performance is super sluggish, and the cursor jumps around randomly, which is really frustrating. I realize it might be a hard disk issue, so I'm here to ask for advice on what I can do to fix this.

One option to consider is imaging your existing system onto an SSD and then replacing the HDD with that SSD. It can seriously boost the speed of your laptop! Just make sure you have the right software to do the imaging, and it should help with the performance issues you're experiencing.
I totally feel you! SSDs make a huge difference in speed compared to HDDs. Just backing up your data first is a must! Plus, if you haven't already, check the RAM—you might want to upgrade that too for better performance.
