No windows XP cd and I have unmountable boot volume problem

I don't have a Windows XP CD, I lost it... how I can get a CD so I can try to solve my problem of "unmountable boot volume"? Do I have other options?

Hi EricaMetzler,

1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

2. When you receive the error message?

You will need to check the hard disk for all errors for which you need the Windows XP installation CD.

Unfortunately, Windows XP installation CD is no longer available for sale, you can contact any local store tech or you can check eBay or Amazon, they have all copies left.

    Print my pdf files is no longer. After pressing PRINT the 'Print to File' window pops up and I have to press SAVE under to go to the next step. Once the pdf file is saved it is therefore more a pdf but a PRN file. An error message appears when I try to print the PRN file. I need to be able to print my original pdf files. Please notify.

    Looks like you somehow accidentally active the option print to file in the Advanced Options print dialogue. Uncheck that and this problem should go away.

  • HP DV7-7338ea Windows 8 Unmountable Boot Volume BSOD

    The product concerned here is a HP DV7-7338ea with Windows 8 operating system. I used it for just under 11 months and bought with Windows 8 is installed.

    Description of the problem:

    I recently installed a new sound update for my laptop. I was asked to reboot and once that happened, I got a BSOD with error message: unmountable boot volume. When this happens, it restarts and goes into mood "automatic repair of preparation", after which the screen goes black and shows of slider windows and then what is it. I find myself with no options or anything. I tried pressing F11 at startup upward, then he said "Please wait" and goes back to the same black screen. I left on during more than an hour, but it just stays there until my man turns off the warm-ups (this has never happened before). I have not installed recently something back outside of the HP update. Please help because I don't know what to do now. I didn't save my files again, and they are too important to me to lose.  Thank you

    Update:

    I ran a check of the system, and it says that the DST of short Hard Drive failed. Does that mean I lost my files? The laptop was working fine until this last update HP who may have damaged my hard drive.

    A DST short drive hard failure means that, either your hard drive is faulty or were not together.

    If you are still under warranty, contact your retailer or HP local store and get a replacement hard drive that you can change yourself or have it sent service.

    If you have a competent friend IT, you may be able to recover some data on the computer.

    You can try to remove the hard drive of your computer and its connection to his own.

    Please let me know how it works.

  • Unmountable Boot Volume and then nothing.

    Hey, I reciently had a problem on my Dell Inspiron E1505 when I booted it load xp and say Unmountable Boot Volume.  Then I ran my diagnosis and it failed the DST short Test which I looked up and in most cases, it is a hard drive failure.  I got a new 160 GB HDD and installed it as I did with the last and I press the power button and the screen lights... everything what happenes is only the beginning of lights flashing... like the NUM Lock and CAPS Lock LCDs small LCD.  I reinstalled my old hard drive and it's the same thing.  That's kinda weird cuz I hadn't touched my computer because the old hard drive was ruined.  I would be grateful to anyone who helps.

    Hello

    I agree with Guybrush. The error seems to be related to the boot file system is defective and new resettlement could help.

    As we have already mentioned, the Toshiba Recovery CD could be controlled using the adresse_web above.
    If you are owner of an old series of laptop then the recovery CD could be ordered in the local ASP.

    But generally, you can use a Microsoft operating system CD too.
    You could install windows using this CD and all Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

  • Qosmio G20 - Unmountable Boot Volume

    Hi all

    My G20 starts, I get the standard screen of Windows XP, then a vile blue screen of death, then a message "unmountable boot volume" still more hideous. The systems recovery disc is not an option because he wants to clean up the entire disk.

    Is there a software I can burn it to a cd, which will allow me to start and run a type scandisk/chkdsk program to try to repair the drive? I have fond memories of the Norton Utilities programs type which unfortunately seems to have disappeared. Otherwise, I assume that the reader must go out, be "caddied" and operated in my desktop pc, where I can download repairers adapted on the net?

    Am I missing the point with the drive to "recover", IE there facilities to try to recover the data on the disk, rather than rinse?

    Thank you

    Hi mate,

    There is not much to say, I have the solution for you: UBCD4Win (www.ubcd4win.com)

    It s simply a CD image of gorgeus with a Windows XP as the basis, so download, burn, and secure your data or repair your file system.
    I saved a lot many damaging HDD´s, data and everything I know with this really useful tool.

    Good luck buddy
