Hi.

I have just unistalled iTunes & Quicktime and now my PC won't boot up.

The error message reads 'unmountable boot volume'.

Can anyone suggest how to overcome this problem?

Thanks

Boot to the recovery console and run this command

chkdsk /r

Rob;
Power off
Desktop:...Open the case and reseat the hard drive IDE ribbon cable at both
ends.
Laptop/Portables:... simply remove and reinsert the hard drive.
If that fails:

Otherwise go to the website of the hard drive manufacturer and download
their hard drive diagnostics.

Do you have a hard drive overlay such as Max Blast?
Windows XP sometimes has issues with overlay software.
You may need to perform a Clean Installation without their overlay software
which is not needed anyway.
