| When booting up
to Win XP you may get a error that reads "Unmountable Boot Volume". This is
probably because your boot.ini file is messed up.
So, what do you do about it, panic and try to mount
your boot in your computer...... No that is probably not a good idea.
You can boot to the XP cd and when you see the
Welcome to setup press the letter R
You will get a dos prompt
Then type "chkdsk /p" without the quotes and hit enter
When that is done type "fixboot" and hit enter
"Y" and enter at the prompt
Then type "exit" and hit enter
The system will now reboot into Windows
If for some reason that don't work for you, you can
boot to the recovery console like above and...
Type "chkdsk /r" then enter
When done type "exit" and hit enter.
This will take longer, but the system should boot back into Windows.
Someone filled out the form to the right and asked about systems
without a XP CD like Compaq and HP. If you have a XP system and don't have
a XP CD please download the Windows XP boot disk from our
Downloads page and use it instead of the XP CD.
NOTE: *** The Win XP boot disk takes 6 floppy
disks. ***
Some of you has had an error where it ask for the location of autochk.exe
well the correct location of this file is
C:\WINDOWS\system32 and you can download it here from our download page
by clicking the link. You don't need to do this but it may help if your
having trouble.
Thanks for the feedback. |
