My computer was on in the morning and out of no where a blue screen reading "Unmountable Boot Volume" popped up. I tried rebooting, but the same screen appeared over and over.
I put in my Windows XP Home Edition disk, and I tried repairing it using the steps from the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;555302
When I pressed "R" for repair, I received a message saying that it could not find any hard drive.
I ejected the Windows XP disk and rebooted.
I then came to a screen saying that the Primary Hard Disk could not be found.
I had the option to hit F1 to retry the boot or F2 for setup utility.
Retrying the boot does nothing, and I don't know what to do with F2.
Is my hard drive dead forever?
