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

  • How to fix intermittent blue screen of death?

    This is a 15" MacBook Pro that came loaded with 10.6.7. 2GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3. Getting a blue screen on startup. Sometimes (1/10 times) it will boot okay. Cannot startup on the DVD (holding down the C key). Just will not work. Verified the DVD drive does work as I was able to get the hardware test to work on the other DVD (hold down the D key). Tried using an external drive with same failure. It is currently up and running. I ran the Verify Disk and it did not find any issues. Then I ran Verify Disk Permissions and it did find some problems with usr/lib/libruby.2.0... and usr/lib/libruby.dyllb.  Few other issues with Safari, Printers and iBook.app. It is repairing permissions as I type. I fear the issue will not be resolved by this. I have a Time Machine backup on a USB drive. That's all I can think of to write. Any suggestions on how to cure the blue screen issue on startup?

    If you can't boot from the install disc in order to reinstall OS X, take your Mac to Apple Store >  Apple - Find Locations

  • How to fix the Blue Screen of Death for iPhone 5S?

    I have an iPhone 5S and I never got water on it, dropped it, or inflicted any kind of damage upon it. But one day when I turned it on it kept getting this blue screen and then restarting CONSTANTLY. This is referred to as the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). Does anyone know how to actually fix this problem besides just restoring the phone (I already tried that.)

    Hi ..
    If you restored the iPhone to factory settings and it still won't startup correctly, make a reservation at a Genius Bar.

  • How to fix a blue screen iphone 5s ?

    Just had that blue screen today on my iphone 5s.
    I wasn't using Pages, Keynotes, etc.
    Just a normal use of my iphone.
    Blue screen and I then got that "connect to iTunes".
    My only choice is to restore my iphone ?
    If I do so, I'll lose all the pics I took today. And photostream can't help me, as this pb occurred 5 min after I got home. No time to fully sync my photo folders on my other iDevices.
    What can be done?
    Thanks a lot,

    This could be hardware related and you should get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider/Apple Store or by contacting Apple Support. Maybe your battery needs to be replaced, they can check the battery life online.
    You can also visit this page to do that: iPhone - Contact Support - Apple Support
    Click on Apple Support, then on ->Battery, Power &Charging ->Battery questions and troubleshooting, and follow the instructions.

    Hi,
    Assuming your in the US, recovery discs are available to order for that model here.  That may be the best option.
    You should also be able to do a recovery without the discs as well.  Take a look at this document: Recover Windows Vista Operating System Using HP Recovery, and look for the section Restore the PC to its original condition with the HP Recovery Manager if Windows Vista is not accessible.  This should allow you to recover the PC.

  • Window setup option on the boot menu after fixing Blue Screen Errors

    Hello Everyone, this is my firs t request.
    I spent two days fixing the Blue Screen Errors (BSoD) on my computer but one thing keeps bothering me is that everytime I start or reboot my computer, it gives me TWO OPTIONS; 1. windows xp home edition 2.windows setup (default). I want to disable the second option. I had attempted to re-install windows but later changed my mind, and found an alternative to fix the Blue Screen Errors. I believe the reason Blue Screen Errors (BSoD) showed up was that I had created a new user profile and copied over old user profile files so improperly that it duplicated drivers, and gave me a list of STOP errors with blue screens for both new and old users. 
    The bootini file currently shows:
    [Boot Loader]
    Timeout=5
    Default=C:\$WIN_NT$.~BT\BOOTSECT.DAT
    [Operating Systems]
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
    Does anyone know what to edit for the bootini file so that I don't get two options at the startup??? My system details are:
    IdeaPad, S10-4231
    Windows XP Home Edition SP3
    4-year old
    Thanks,
    Lenovo User

    Hi
    Welcome To Lenovo Community
    As per the Default Sample of Boot.ini the default value after timeout section needs to be modified
    [boot loader]
    timeout=30
    default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
    [operating systems]
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect
    Before making any changes please save a copy of Boot.ini
    Save a Backup Copy of Boot.ini
    <script type="text/javascript">//
    loadTOCNode(2, 'summary');
    // </script>
    Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    -or-
    Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery.
    Under System Startup, click Edit. This opens the file in Notepad ready for editing.
    In Notepad, click File on the Menu bar, and then click Save As.
    Right click in an empty area of the Save As dialog box, point to New in the context menu, and then click Folder.
    Type a name for the new folder, for example temp, and then press the ENTER key to create the folder named temp.
    Double-click the new folder named temp, and then click the Save button to save a backup copy of the Boot.ini file.
     Please try modifying the following
     Default=C:\$WIN_NT$.~BT\BOOTSECT.DAT
     to 
    default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
    Hope This Helps

  • How can I fix this blue screen?

    When I start up my Mac, I see nothing but a blue screen. I can move the mouse around, but that’s about it. How can I fix this blue screen?
    i have a logitech keyboard and mouse
    Message was edited by: bruybenj

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • Hp pavillion a1324n - blue screen error

    After an extended shut off period (say overnight), when I start up my desktop it goes through the process and starts up fine but within a minute it shuts off and either it restarts and and then works fine for the rest of the day (even if I shut it off and turn it on several times) or it goes to a blue screen error and I have to restart it manually with the power button and then it restarts and works fine after it is restarted.  However, the next time I shut it off and leave it off for a long period of time, it then goes through this blue screen or restart process?  Please help me with suggestions as to what may be causing this issue and how it may be fixed.  Thanks.

    You've got an older PC so clean out the dust bunnies inside... just to be sure.
    HP released a BIOS update that address lock ups and freezes... might be related to the problem. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=pv-51922-1

  • Blue Screen Error after Synching

    I had Blackberry Desktop Manager 7 installed on my WIndows XP machine...I have been getting Blue screen errors frequently after my  Outlook is synched wiht the device..I was on BDM 6 prior to this and used to consistently get Blue Screen Errors. I used to think there was some other issue with the laptop until recently when I got a new one and I installed The desktop manager.
    Once i realised that, I uninstalled the Software from my desktop yesterday but I read a lot of blogs that said that the BSOD will continue to come as your normal uninstalls are incomplete..Could you let me know how this can be fixed? Do you have a stable version of the desktop manger that doesnt give a BSOD?
    I need to sync my device with Outlook everyday..and I cannot afford BSOD's everyday..

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I suggest this thread:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Sof​tware-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-​...
    It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
    BSOD's are actually more rare of a problem, from what I've seen, and often indicate something more core wrong with the actual PC, Windows installation, or something else...and the RIM Desktop Software is simply revealing this deeper flaw rather than being the cause of it. In the worst case scenarios, I've actually heard of folks doing a clean rebuild of their PC (e.g., reinstalling Windows from scratch) and that rectifying the problem.
    Ohhh...one last thing:

    FYI -- From the wording, I suspect you are misunderstanding the purpose of these forums. This is a user-to-user community, not a user-to/from-RIM channel for any communication whatsoever. So, by "Do You", you are actually asking that of other users, "out there", just like you who happen to be volunteering time to help others out.
    Good luck!

  • 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.

    I don't have a similar machine to look at so this is a bit of a guess:
    Per page 30 or your user's guide http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/lenovo_g400sg400stouchg500sg500stouchg405sg505s_ug_e...:
    How can I start the BIOS setup utility?
    To start the BIOS setup utility:
    1 Shut down the computer.
    2 Press the Novo button and then select BIOS Setup
    There should be a tab labelled something like "Configuration" and on that page something like "SATA controller mode".  Select "compatible" and save and exit.
    I'm not certain this will fix your problem, but it's worth a try.

  • Blue screen error and start up failure

    i have a problem with my hp pavellion 15 notebook (n020nr) im getting various blue screen errors that keep saying all the time, when my computer is restarting it shuts down but my led s caplock and the flight mode are still on, so i just press the power button and holding it for 15 and it keeps the same, so i have to take out the battery and the charge and hold the botton for 30 seconds so after that i just unplug in  the charge and it turns on and it works fine for atleast 5 or 6 minutes and then it shows the blue screen error dpc violation and sometimes i got  driver power state fauile, the computer is not very old i got it  from Telus company  4  or 3 months ago, please if someone could help me i would really appreciate.
    P.S sorry for my english

    Hi sebastian24,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! You mentioned the Caps Lock keys stays on, does it flash at all? If so how many flashes in the pattern? This will help us determine the cause of the errors. These blue screens are commonly referred to as a Blue Screen of Death and can be quite difficult to fix. If you just purchased it you should still be in warranty, I recommend that you call HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or visit the link below if you are outside North America.
