pcdabbler 0 Posted March 3, 2002 Am trying to repair a crashed XP Pro install at work, but don't have access to the CDrom's till tommorrow. Could someone help me out and either attach Autochk.exe or post a link for me ???? Thanks in advance ! By the way, trying to fix a STOP 0x000000ED Unmountable boot volume fault. Have booted the system with XP boot floppies, but cannot see anything in C: Think the drive is trashed ... Chao! Share this post Link to post

pcdabbler 0 Posted March 3, 2002 Managed to run chkdsk from the conosle promt now, it has repaired the drive, but the registry is corrupt. No matter, the data on the drive has returned, thats the main thing. Still at a loss to what may have caused it though .. Virus or drive failure ? Share this post Link to post

pcdabbler 0 Posted March 7, 2002 Well well well, as a follow up, it WAS a Maxtor 30gb Drive on an Asus A7V133 Motherboard that mucked up. NTFS formatted as well. Glad I don't run them at home. I'll probably get flamed for this, but just take a look around the boards about the number and diversity of problems reported, look at the specs .. VIA chipset in almost every one. Nuff Said.
