| 206265 | 2004-01-09 06:37:00 | Ok, that was a stupid subject line, but I'm desperate. My Windows XP pro machine has just refused to start up, giving me the error message UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME. It happened after I had a power flick and my machine turned off while processing closing a game of Warcraft 3 down. Checking it out, it looks as if my file sytem is damaged. I would really prefer not to have to do a full re-format, because there is a lot of stuff that i really should have backed up. I there any way to repair the damage without a format? | manik_munkey (4223) | ||
