hi there im afraid i can't post OTL log as basically im using my bro's laptop to get help.. and i can't get onto my own desktop PC thats where the problems are.
yesterday i came home, switched on the PC and instead of log on screen asking for my password i got a black screen, with white writing & 3 options.
each time i load it up i get 3 options i've listed them below.
load last good configuration settings (which does not load)
load in safe mode ( which does not work)
load in safe mode with command prompts (which does not work)
now when i try to select the mentioned options the windows loading screen appears 2 secs later it crashes and Big Blue Screen Of Doom!!!
i have tried and tried to get passed the blue screen, but every time i select any of the above 3 options my computer loads a little the BSOD
the error says
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 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 updates you might need:
if this problem continues, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software.
disable BIOS memory options such as cashing or shadowing.
if you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components.
restart your computer. press F8 to select advanced start up options and then select safe mode (which does not load)
technical information:
***STOP :0x000000ED (0X8AB79590,0XCO000006,0X00000000,0X000000)
I am running windows XP
unfortunately I don't have the installation CD that came with the PC
i cant get passed anything i just keep getting this BSOD its driving me insane.
