I have a Dell Dimension 2400, running XP Home edition, and now have a blue
screen stating 'unmountable boot volume'. The computer won't boot in safe
mode. How do I fix this? I don't have an XP disc.
What are the 4 parameters associated with the Unmountable Boot Volume
error?
You can possibly fix this by booting to the Windows XP Recovery
Console and running the following command:
CHKDSK C: /R
If you do not have a Windows XP CD and if your computer has a 3.5 inch
diskette drive then you can download images to create a 6 diskette
boot set from

If your computer does not have a 3.5 inch diskette drive then you can
create a bootable CD using Bart's PE Builder, boot the computer with
that, and then run the command.
