Fix UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME problem

Upon startup, a computer running windows XP is dead with a blue screen reporting "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" error.

The reason is that the master boot record of the computer is damaged. The fix is to reboot the computer with a XP installation disk. Press "R" to enter recovery console. Then at C:> prompt, enter:

chkdsk c: /r /p
fixmbr
fixboot
exit (to reboot)
