  • E1505 disk hard blue screen Unmountable Boot Volume

    Hello Dell Community.

    I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop and while I turned on my laptop yesterday, I received this error went to blue screen during the loading of the Windows logo screen. I restarted and it told me that Windows did not start successfully, so it gave me options of how to start as: start Windows normally or in Safe Mode. Regardless of what I chose, the same thing would happen, the blue screen appears with the error reading "Unmountable Boot Volume". So I ran a diagonistic test on my whole computer and everything going on, but the hard drive. The disk error message hard read was:

    Error code: 0F00:0244

    MSG block: error impossible to correct data or media is write protected

    I don't know what to do with my computer, because I can't go any further than the Windows XP loading screen, because it stops just loading and the blue screen appears. So I can't uninstall a program or data from my computer.

    Help will be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

  • 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.

    Windows recovery disc 32-bit error code meaning version question

    Hello
    I hope someone can help me. I am unable to boot into windows vista 32-bit, so I downloaded the vista recovery disk and get an oxo error code what it means (thanks in advance)?

    You don't give any info on what was the original problem with the computer.

    You have set the Bios Setup to boot from the CD/DVD drive?

    At startup, it will say press F2 or delete key to go into Bios/Setup, or maybe F12 to go to the Start Menu.

    And have you tried also to tap F8 at startup and choose Safe Mode from the list of Boot Options?

    Use up arrow key to do this, press on enter.

    Browse your Hard Drive manufacturer's website, download software from here and test your hard drive for errors.

    See you soon.

  • BSOD - 0x000000ed Unmountable Boot Volume on satellite error message

    Hi guys,.

    laptop was dropped and I now get the blue screen with this message at startup "stop: 0x000000ed unmountable boot volume.
    I read in some sites 'recover using xp disk', my laptop was bought with xp was preinstalled and I don't have a recovery disk.

    (1) can anyone identify the problem?
    (2) a recovery disk help?
    (3) if so where can I get one?

    Thank you

    Jim

    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.

  • Satellite Pro L10 - Unmountable Boot Volume

    My Satellite Pro L10 loops in the boot process. After the Windows XP splash screen, the following error messages appears:... Unmountable boot volume... Technical information: Stop: 0x000000ED...

    I know that is nothing exceptional and do a full restore would solve the problem. But I don't want to lose the data (which are of course not saved). I tried a Windows XP disk, but it does not start from the cd/dvd drive by pressing F12 or <0>and change the boot order...

    Can anyone help please?

    Hello

    Hmm, the volume not mountable startup error message appears especially if the HARD drive may not be recognized during initialization. Why? Well, maybe the HARD drive failures or the master boot record is defective!

    If you don t want to recover the laptop, you can try to boot from the XP CD (C press immediately after switching on the laptop) and to start the repair console.

    In the repair console, you can use the command chkdsk/p and after that, you could fix the disk main boot using the fixboot command or / and fixmbr.

    If this does not help, the new installation of the OS is that you as a last resort.

    PS: If you want to save the data you can try to remove the HARD drive and try to connect it via external USB HDD controller to another computer.

  • 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
    Dude

    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

  • R61 R &amp; R does not start after the "unmountable boot volume" error

    Hi all

    New user, first post - after problem, of course.

    I have a Thinkpad R61 with Windows XP on it.  (SP2 or SP3, not sure).  Worked without problem for years, and then the other day I got the dreaded "unmountable boot volume" error and it would not start.

    No problem - I have reboot, hit the ThinkVantage button, then press F11 to use the R & R hidden on a separate hard disk partition... I get the black screen with progress bar big, okay, then a blue screen... then nothing.  Hang up and sits there.  I've told about 5 times now.

    No problem! -J' was smart enough to make a CD R & R defined earlier.  The main R & R disc in the CD drive, turn on the machine, the ThinkPad, F12 button this time choose to boot from the CD... much activity follows and once more, I get the black screen with progress bar big.  It takes a lot more time then I get the blue screen - BUT - he took the extra step to display the "ThinkVantage Rescue & Recovery 4" with the image of lifejacket.

    Excellent, I thing - but it crashes then it.  He's here.  No disk activity.  No key won't do anything.

    I can't find any thread here or on any other forum with this particular issue.

    Am I fubar?  Or is there something else I can do?

    Thanks to a bouquet.

    Hi jim, welcome to the forums.

    Is the drive recognized in the BIOS, there was an entry in the startup list against HDD0?

    No matter what it projected in BIOS / boot list or not, the first thing I would do is to reinstall the hard drive and see if that helps, maybe with the time he lost contact to the Jack from the motherboard. If you are unsure how to do this you can find on the R61 movie site.

    The next thing I would do is run a check on a cd bootable hard drive Diagnostics, these can be downloaded from websites of all manufacturers drive HARD for example Hitachi Drive Fitness Test.  Maybe it's that the reader simply went bad after all these years of work.

  • UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME

    I have an old Dell D510 latitude which I am trying to reactivate, but at startup, I get the blue "screen of death" with the error message "Unmountable Boot Volume". What is stored on the laptop that I have been saved a long time ago. How can I start this laptop upward even if if means reinstall all software.

    old computer of my wife with xp professional, a BSOD. XP has been loaded after repairs but no disc or came back with her floppy and her previous husband did not have any disk repair. I followed the information and made a cd using the given sites. Fix the MBR to be not hard drive cd and put the cd in. He ran until the "press any key to boot from CD' here but at this time, none of the keys on the keyboard make an impression and came once again, the message"press any key... ". "and everything is then returned to BSOD. Other tips.

    I have a friend with xp home on his machine, but like me there no discs or floppy. can I get a disc repair/diskette by using his machine, though there was xp home and I have xp professional? If so how is this done?

    a response would be appreciated.
