Hi,
My laptop just had an UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME BSoD, and I've taken some steps to fix it, made a slight bit of progress, and because of the unusualness of the situation (which I only say because Googling didn't bring up any specific scenarios), I'd like to post where I'm at to get information on what I should do.
At first, I just got the error after the Windows Logo Loading Screen.
I then did chkdsk /r a couple of times via Recovery Console (freezing at 53%), and rebooted and after the loading screen, would show a black screen with my cursor on it.
Back in Recovery console, now it asks me to select a windows installation (before it would go into C:\). My HD is partitioned, D:\ has the windows files, and it recognizes that and gives me the option to log into D:\WINDOWS.
When I go to use fixboot, it says:
This is where I get confused - if windows is on D:, why is it offering C:?
Should I do fixboot on C: or do something else?

The target partition is C:.
Are you sure you want to write a new bootsector to the partition C: ?
