Blue screen unmountable_boot_volume

I have a toshibia laptop that has crashed, I am eventually getting the unmountable_boot_volume error blue screen, the recovery disks that i ordered will not work, just disk 1 loads windows file then goes to a black screen with the cursor pointer, computer repair does the same thing, os is windows 7 satellite c655d-s5120 64 bit the bios does show the hard drive name and the boot log is showing the last driver loaded is windows/system 32/drivers/atipcie.sys, can I order a recovery for the windows 7 or is there any other ideas to fix this?not sure why this is happening

You've already ordered recovery discs and they're not working? It then sounds like that hard drive is bad and needs replacing.

  • Windows Blue Screen "unmountable_boot_volume"

    Hi!
    I'm using Bootcamp on a MacBook Pro in order to install Windows XP Professional. After successful installation of Windows XP Professional (re-formated bootcamp partion by windows setup with NTFS file system) a Windows blue screen appears with "UNMOUNTABLEBOOTVOLUME" error. The Windows logo and progress bar was visible before the Windows blue screen appeared.
    Does anybody know how I can tell Windows to be able to mount the boot volume? Is it a "volume rights issue"? What right settings do I need to set the partition?
    Thanx for your help.
    Gerhard

    You may have better luck posting to the Boot Camp Forum. But here's some ideas:
    See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555302/en-us In particular, boot off the Windows installation CD (hold down alt while booting, then select the CD) and enter the recovery console. Then do chkdsk /r and fixboot. Finally, exit
    If that still doesn't help, boot back into Mac OS and open Disk Utility. Select your hard drive (not just the Macintosh HD Volume) and being very careful to not hit "apply" select the "partitions" tab and look at the bottom for the "Partition Map". Make sure it is GUID. It needs to be GUID to use Windows. It should be GUID if it is an MBP. If it is not GUID, unfortunately, the only method I know for converting it to GUID will effectively erase everything on the hard drive, including Mac OS.

  • UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME BLUE SCREEN

    I have a Toshiba C655-S5123 error code UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME blue screen code:STOP: 0x000000ED (0xFFFFFA80026B15F0,0xFFFFFFFFC0000185,0x0000000000000000.0x0000000000000000)I can't boot in safe mode and can't access system repair. 
    I have disks for system repair and back up disks. Does anyone have any advice how to access or restore my computer?

    Mbwmew
    Unmountable boot volume can mean the HD file structure is bad (software) or it can mean the HD hardware is failing.  Try booting from the system repair disk and if it will boot run CHKSK.  If you cant boot from the repair disk download the HD disk
    utility from the HD mfr and boot from it and un it.
    I suspect it will be hardware related.
    CHKDSK /R 
    Chkdsk disclaimer: While performing chkdsk on the hard drive if any bad sectors are found  any data available on that sector might be lost so as usual backup your data.
    Run CHKDSK /R /F from an elevated (Run as administrator) Command Prompt.
    Do this for each hard drive on your system.
    When it tells you it can't do it right now - and asks you if you'd like to do it at the next reboot - answer Y (for Yes) and press Enter.
    Then reboot and let the test run.
    It may take a while for it to run, but keep an occasional eye on it to see if it generates any errors.
    http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/guide-to-using-check-disk-in-windows-vista/
     See "CHKDSK LogFile" below in order to check the results of the test.
    CHKDSK LogFile:
    Go to Start and type in "eventvwr.msc" (without the quotes) and press Enter
    Expand the Windows logs heading, then select the Application log file entry.
    Double click on the Source column header.
    Scroll down the list until you find the Chkdsk entry (wininit for Win7) (winlogon for XP).
    Copy/paste the results into your next post.

  • Vista - Blue screen of death "Unmountable_Boot_Volume" - how to boot vista?

    Running Vista using parallels 6.0. Parallels mounts fine, but when I try to launch Vista I get a blue screen for a few seconds that says "UnmountableBootVolume" I have read on other help forums to clear this I will need to launch Vista from the original software disk by holding down the "R" key or "f3" or "delete" key. None of these work when trying to launch vista with the disk in the cd drive. How do I launch Vista from the original cd on a macbook pro. What is the magic key to make this happen?

    Please post Parallels questions on the Parallels forums. Apple discussions only provide support for Apple products

  • My Laptop giving me Unmountable_boot_volume blue screen.

     I need Windows XP CD to repair, it didnt come with one, what do I do? whenver windows starts loading it gives me the blue screen, I can't even get to the log in screen. So I can't copy anything inside t windows file or anything. And I dont have the CD, but i read online that i need the CD, where can I download it from?
    Thank you very much for your help

    You could borrow a windows xp pro or home disk from a friend or someone who has one. and depending on whats causing the error, you may not need a disk. If a hard drive failure is causing the error, all the cd will allow you to do is get in and copy all your data off of it. but yes you need the xp disk to do a repair. You can search the internet for xp (pro or home depending on your version) and then .iso. it is slightly illegal, but unless you also download a serial or crack it shoiuld be ok. once you get the iso, burn it to disk and boot the machine off of it. choose the repair console instead of install. I cant remember exactly what to do after that, but there are guides on the internet to help you. Hope this can help you. if worse comes to worst, i can compress an XP image and send it to you. (ive had this error before)

  • How to fix "unmountable_boot_volume" blue screen error on Pavilion dv7 2185 dx notebook

    I turned on the laptop and it would only show the blue screen for a second and then cut off. I tried F7, F8, F9, F10, F11 and nothing seems to work. I tried starting it in the last good sector. I tried fixing it and nothing seems to work.
    The blue screen also says - disable memory option (caching/shadowing).
    I bought this latptop with the original Vista OS but I later received the Window 7 upgrade through HP. This laptop did not come with recovery CDs.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix the problem? Please help me

  • Satellite S2450-201: Blue Screen Error - UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME

    Hello,
    This morning a turned on my laptop and went downstairs for breakfast when i returned to the laptop there was a blue screen in which it said the following...
    A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
    If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
    Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows uodates you might need.
    If problems continue, disable or remove any new installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, Press f8 to select advanced startup options, and then select safe mode.
    Technical information:
    *** STOP: 0X000000ED (0X817D3130, 0XC0000032, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)
    Now i have tryed restarting over and over, I have tryed Safe Mode, Safe Mode with networking, Safe Mode with command prompt, Last known good config, Start windows normally. All of which lead to the same blue screen with the same white lettered message.
    I need to gain access to the computer quite soon as it contains important data. If anyone can help without me losing any data i would be very much obliged.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi
    I think the easiest way to solve this problem is to recover the notebook with the delivered Toshiba recovery CD.
    The boot sector can be created again on the HDD.
    But you know; all data will be deleted.
    If you want to save the data, you can try to remove the notebook HDD. Install it in the external USB case and connect the HDD to the other computer. Then you will be able to access the HDD and to save the data.

    If you've already ordered a set of recovery discs, you probably don't need to order another one. While it's possible that the discs are bad (and maybe you should call customer support just to see what they say), it's also possible that you have a hardware failure of some sort.

  • HP Pavilion 750n - Windows XP Blue Screen of Death Error

    Hello everyone - I hope I can get a reply to fix my son's computer (I can't afford to buy a new one).
    I received the blue screen of doom and I was not aware that Windows had a patch to fix this before the error occurred.  I tried to restore my system to when I first bought this computer without losing all my data (specially my pictures).  Now the system starts but it gets stuck on the page that asked if you want to logon on Safe Mode or Regular Mode, etc.  No matter what I choose the system keeps coming back to this same screen.
    I read the following on the HP web side but I'm not sure how to get this diskette/cd or whatever they have available:
    Preventing a Windows XP Critical Error
    If you purchased your HP Pavilion home PC between September 2001 and February 2002, your PC may experience a Microsoft® Windows® XP critical error. To prevent an error that may cause your computer to be unusable, HP strongly recommends that you go to the Microsoft Windows Updates Web site to download all critical updates. Without these updates, an Unmountable Boot Volume error may occur randomly, and if it does, the error creates a blue screen with the message: A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME…Technical Information: *** STOP: 0x000000ED
    If this error occurs, you will be unable to fix the problem without a diskette that you can order from HP Technical Support.
    The system won't let me send HP an email and I can’t see how to contact them just to ask for a price.  Perhaps, there may be another place where I can get the diskette for this fix - does anyone know how to get the diskette or if I can download the fix from somewhere else? 
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Get BartPE or Ultimate Boot CD and you should be able to get the computer to a state that will allow you to copy your files.
    If you have a spare computer or HD, configure the problem HD as a slave and you should be able to access your files. 

  • Satellite L450D-13X - Black Screen of Death/Blue Screen of Death

    Hello everyone.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L450D-13X computer for the kids, and for the price it's a good laptop. Have had no issues with it until two weeks ago when the screen froze for the boys whilst playing a game and downloading a program from the net. Had to do a force shutdown and since then we have a BSoD on every boot-up. This is what we have tried:
    On 'Starting Windows' we are given an option of either 'Launch Startup Repair' which ends up as BSoD or 'Start Windows Normally' which reverts back to the 'Starting Windows' option list.
    Any attempt to enter 'Safe Mode' results in BSoD.
    Attempting to boot an ISO of the Windows Recovery Disk on a USB key (we did highlight it and promote it to the top) results in BSoD. Borrowing a proper Window 7 installation DVD and highlighting this as an option results in BSoD.
    In fact, the only option we used that threw up something different was using advanced boot options. On one of these options we got the Blue Screen of Death with the following information:
    Unmountable_Boot_Volume
    Disable Bios Memory Options such as caching/shadowing
    Tech info
    Stop: 0x000000ED (0xFFFFFA80023C2CDO 0xFFFFFFFFC0000185 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000)
    I don't mind erasing the hard drive and starting again, there's nothing on it that's critical. I'd very, very much appreciate a steer on this. Checked the web for stuff and nothing seems to assist in any other options. I am not particularly tech literate but can follow instructions.
    Thanks in advance.

    In my opinion system has a problem to start, so there are two most possible ways waht failed. Firstly as "Akuma" and "Keany" says HDD so check it. Second thing is RAM module. Check it using Memtest 86+ or if you have a possibility replace it for a while by other module. HDD is more possible, but RAM module is easier and faster to check (that's my opinion)

  • Black and Blue Screens

    I have an A305-s6843 that was fine until last night.  It froze, wouldn't bring up task manger or shut down.  When I did a hard boot, I got a blue screen with "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME."  When I re-booted using repair mode, I got a black screen with a pointer that moves.  Have tried booting from the provided recovery disc and I get a black screen.  Have tried re-formatting and all I get is a black screen.  Any ideas?  I've backed up the important stuff on my hard drive so I'm not really worried about losing data.  I just want my computer back.

    If you are really booting from the recovery disk and getting nothing but a black screen, then you have a hardware problem requiring service.  Hope you're still under warranty.

  • Re: Equium A210-1AS - Blue screen and can't start it

    My computer was working fine, i shut it down, the next time i start up it shows the windows loading screen, then for a second a blue screen flashes by, it restarts and repeats, i shut it down and started tapping F8 untill the advanced boot options comes up, safemode ect... none of them work and all lead to the blue screen, if i select the repair option at the top "Repair Your Computer" it begins to load with a vista background and cursor and then shows the error "The installed program cannot start. click OK to turn off the computer."
    in Advanced Boot Options i try "Disable automatic restart on system failure" and the blue screen stays up so i can see it, it shows a usual blue screen error, reading:
    UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
    STOP: 0X000000ED (0X85DDA600, 0XC000009C, 0X0000000, 0X0000000)
    I do not have a recovery CD as i believe there is a recovery partition, but i don't know how to access this-
    I am using Equium A210-1AS
    Part Number : PSAFJE-005005KS
    Windows vista 32bit
    Thanks,
    I know know the recovery partition is accessed theough "Repare your computer" but just shows "The installed program cannot start. click OK to turn off the computer." :/

    Hello
    In my opinion the case is clear: If you cant start the HDDrecovery feature (btw, its not a recovery partition!!!) using Repair my Computer option, you need the Toshiba recovery disk to reinstall it and get factory settings back.
    Im wondering that you dont have a recovery disk. You didnt create it? So you didnt read the user manual but this should always be done before you do something with computers.
    Anyway, you can order a new recovery disk here:
