Hey, first-timer here.
Overnight my laptop was left to update itself as usuall, but when I got to it this morning I found it repeatedly flashing a BSOD with the error:
UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
I have attempted countless boots into safe mode, all throw the same BSOD at me.
My machine is an HP Pavillion ze4900 model laptop running WinXP Home (well.. was).
I've tried a some "common remedies" but none seems to be effective at all..
Does anyone have an idea on how to recover from this, or is my laptop to hence-forth be known as a brick.
(If any solutions involve removing the HDD, you will need to explain in detail as I have not seen anything obvious on the underside)
Many thanks!
