I have an HP Media Center m7680n with Windows XP home edition SP2. When I
powered up the PC recently, it stopped and showed error message
“unmountable_boot_volumeâ€
STOP:0x000000ED (0x89D197F8,0xc0000006,0x00000000, 0x0000000)
I'd tried F1, F8, F10 options during boot up without success.
I used SATA to USB adaptor trying to read the HD as an external drive from
another PC. The PC can read the files in the recovery drive of the HD but
can’t open the directory in the original C:\ drive of the HD. Does anyone
know if the HD is damaged or if just some files got corrupted?
I called HP tech support and the tech recommended using the HP recovery
discs to reset the HD to factory installation default settings, meaning all
the users installed software and data files will be gone. I am not sure if
this is the only option. I did some digging in the MS web sites and they
recommended fixing the problem using Windows XP installation CD. Is it worth
try the XP installation CD?
Thanks in advance.
