Please help,
Windows XP wont open and the message "unmountable_boot_volume" appears.
Have tried opening in safe mode but the same thing happens. It suggests it may be due to software recently added but theres no way of removing anything.
Many thanks in advance.

However, the same message happens when I try to boot up from the recovery CD.
Any ideas apart from ordering a skip!!!!
