Unhappy Problem with viewers!!!


I have a huge problem and I have to solve it today (and I have no clue how to do it!!!)
Yesterday I was playing around with windoze and suddenly everything began to lag like shit so I turned the power off, when I tried to start it after that I got a blue screen saying

UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME

bla bla bla (bullshit)

and then technichal info:
***STOP: 0x000000ED (0x81FDF030, 0xc0000032, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Now this isnt the biggest problem, normally I would have cursed, smashed something and formatted that partition, but now with my lousy timing I had just finished and essay that has to be in on friday and I dont want to redo.... So is there any way I can view and copy files from my windows partition to the linux partition or maybe get access to the windows partition again?
Windows loads and when its like half loaded this happens (btw) it suggests trying with safe mode but I get the same bluescreen then... Pleeease help me Im dying here!!!!

You need to add an entry for your windows partition in /mnt, add an entry for windows in /etc/fstab (syntax will vary according to filesystem) and then you should be able to mount your windows partition and copy the files over. There are tons of threads here on how to mount a windows partition.

I wouldn't bother with editing fstab unless you want to set up your windows partition in linux permanently (which might not be a bad idea).

Just create a directory in /mnt, like maybe /mnt/windows. Then run 'fdisk -l' (that's a lower-case L, not a one) to see which is your windows partition. It'll be the one with the entry 'Win95 FAT32' or 'HPFS/NTFS' listed under system. Then run one of the following commands, depending on the type:

mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows

mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows

Be sure to replace /dev/hda1 with the partition that you found listed under Device in 'fdisk-l'

BTW How did you come up with that topic? It really has nothing to do with your problem. How about something like 'How do I access windows partition?'

Enjoy!
