Yeah. Having a computer problem and I'm hoping some of you can help, either from some experience or perhaps you guys have better Google Fu then me.
I forgot to shut down my computer the night before and woke up with it still running. I noticed it was running slow and attempted to restart it, only to have it crash on me. Since then it has been booting up with a UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME error. We've tried to run System Restores with the Windows Installation Disk but every time we do so it simply hangs after selecting "repair your computer" doing.. outright trying to reinstall Windows simply causes it to freeze.
Normally most of what I've been reading would lead that to being a bad harddrive, except when I run the cmd prompt chkdsk it recongizes the harddrive, runs through all the checks, recognizes all the space and such, the harddrive light in the computer still comes on.. and comes up with 0 bad sectors. For all I can tell the harddrive seems to be fine. So we're a bit stumped as to what to do now. (I admit it would be nice if the harddrive wasn't broken, as we aren't made of money at the moment.)
almost all of this was done by Alexia who knows how to handle this, so I might have inaccurately explained something. I believe I said it mostly correct though.
