Re: HELP ! 2003 server "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME " on boot

Just a few question on this. The drive in the server is about 30gb now (with about 15gb used). I have a extra 20gb around. Will this cause a problem with the server ?

Now is this drive bad ? Or do you think a with a format it could be used for temp storage ? (they really don't give me much $$ to work with)

xcopy.. What is the best command line to do the whole drive in one shot ? xcopy *.* ? (don't remember the last time I used it, never really needed to).

I want to get this done ASAP

Thank you for your help !!!!

If you can read the disk under Vista then it's a simple matter
to create a bootable clone:
1. Take a disk of sufficient size.
2. Install it as a slave disk on some Win2000/XP/2003 machine.
3. Create the necessary partitions.
4. Mark the primary partition active.
5. Connect it as a slave disk to the Vista machine.
6. Use xcopy.exe to copy all files and folders from the problem
disk to the new disk. Make sure to use the right switches to
copy system files, hidden files and permissions.

You can now boot your server with this clone disk, provided
that it was not damaged during the power failure.
