Re: Unmountable Boot Volume BSOD

You are trying to Ghost a hard drive that obviously has problems - maybe
corrupted data and damaged sector. Therefore, your Ghost image may well be
incomplete. The time to create a Ghost image is when the computer is running
in a known good state, both hardware wise and software wise.

Creating an image from a damaged hard drive seldom, if ever, works.

P4 XP Pro box with 160GB HD generates Unmountable Boot Volume BSOD.
SeaTools
diagnostics floppy reports errors on HD. So I run chkdsk from the CD.
After
this I can boot into safe mode and full mode once. So I run chkdsk from
the
CD and this time when it completes I ghost the HD to a brand spanking new
80
GB HD (there was only 6GB of data to transfer). I make the new 80 GB HD
Disk0 (C:) and boot successfully into safe mode and full mode once. But
when
I power down and reboot I get BSOD Unmountable Boot Volume - on a brand
new
HD!

How can this be?
