Well, I solved that problem, but with less than desirable results...<br />A WARNING: The steps below WILL ERASE everything on your computer; meaning, all your pictures, word documents, files, games, etc. will be gone.<br /><b>The steps to fix unmountable boot error:<br />1. Insert the Windows XP disc and start your pc.<br />2. Press F11 (I think) while it it booting up.<br />3. You should get to a screen that has a bunch of options... (AFTER THIS STEP, ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE LOST). You'll want to choose the option about booting from the CD in your computer.</b><br />Doing this will reinstall Windows XP and essentially erase all your personal files, but it should fix the problem. Good Luck. <br /><br />_______________<br /><A HREF="mailto:dellproblem@gmail.com">DellProblem@gmail.com</A>AuntBee09http://www.blogger.com/profile/10477864978677443521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5027088823786924807.post-85188349972420795922009-05-11T20:27:00.000-07:002009-05-11T20:31:29.840-07:00Dell Computer - Low Battery Voltage<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb5jVahn77W1HIYk0WefkOgSqyfcscRvh29P-7Mb7pWtwJ2hPbzJnN1f5v-k7MfjT4Rb7pHpabbyWnrAkpBDkrRmGUg7VmxY_ZzRfyBGxUHZVIhWc-BSgDGeMo-N59b9Q0ZatMCns9fw9t/s1600-h/Dell+Battery+Voltage+Low.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb5jVahn77W1HIYk0WefkOgSqyfcscRvh29P-7Mb7pWtwJ2hPbzJnN1f5v-k7MfjT4Rb7pHpabbyWnrAkpBDkrRmGUg7VmxY_ZzRfyBGxUHZVIhWc-BSgDGeMo-N59b9Q0ZatMCns9fw9t/s400/Dell+Battery+Voltage+Low.jpg" border="0" alt="Dell Low Voltage Alert"id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334774003208654034" title="Dell voltage problems" /></a><br />Error message:<br /><blockquote><b><p>Alert!

Then remove on the RAM modules, and close the lid; turn your laptop on to see if it now functions properly. If this has no effect on it, put back in the RAM module, and remove the other one. Test it again to see if it now works. If it still does not work, then your problem might be a software (not a hardware) problem.</b><br /><br />Remember to wash your hands before doing this and be gentle with the technology inside your computer.<br /><br />You also might notice that the computer runs slower with only one RAM module. I would recommend you order another RAM module. However, I do not think using just one RAM module affects your lap top negatively.<br /><br />NOTE: I did not figure this out by myself; a friend (who would like to remain anonymous) recommended I try this. <br /><br />_______________<br /><A HREF="mailto:dellproblem@gmail.com">DellProblem@gmail.com</A>AuntBee09http://www.blogger.com/profile/10477864978677443521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5027088823786924807.post-15615342277942412672009-05-06T18:18:00.000-07:002009-05-06T20:00:11.349-07:00Pictures of Dell Blue Screen - "Dumping Physical Memory"<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7tgNZ_8kh6jV9QLQDOTtzYZ3S1mCy60EZ4tkzrKNst8SNptN1nTUAVWDnEerxzywimknwsSz0CLnRThjeHM3G4WBYBMVWyMmrqc4gljv616hYrdKO9Y2QPxWfgCV1KlVjJRBipp2z2Fa3/s1600-h/Dell_Laptop_problem_02.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7tgNZ_8kh6jV9QLQDOTtzYZ3S1mCy60EZ4tkzrKNst8SNptN1nTUAVWDnEerxzywimknwsSz0CLnRThjeHM3G4WBYBMVWyMmrqc4gljv616hYrdKO9Y2QPxWfgCV1KlVjJRBipp2z2Fa3/s400/Dell_Laptop_problem_02.JPG" border="0" alt="Dell laptop blue screen"id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332890303230679362" title="Dell Laptop blue screen error" target="_blank" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT56Fs-VgNg3CK9RVzrOgFv1p-vA8731vlNc-x-9MKdg6Y3vY8EgMYriPC1BWmqK0TxFdp_vGf7_IT94urAcjVO1zvokpCTBEECJDwiXKspua_lT7H7tenianoMCW93nf0_j4o55P6K6YR/s1600-h/Dell_Laptop_problem_01.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT56Fs-VgNg3CK9RVzrOgFv1p-vA8731vlNc-x-9MKdg6Y3vY8EgMYriPC1BWmqK0TxFdp_vGf7_IT94urAcjVO1zvokpCTBEECJDwiXKspua_lT7H7tenianoMCW93nf0_j4o55P6K6YR/s400/Dell_Laptop_problem_01.JPG" border="0" alt="Dell blue screen dumping memory"id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332890583217485490" title="Dell blue screen dumping memory" target="_blank" /></a><br /><blockquote><b><p>A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.</p><p>If this is the first time you’ve seen this stop error screen, restart your computer.
