along with STOP: 0X000000ED (0x865DE900, 0xC0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
To complicate matters, I suspect the recovery program is on the hard drive and have no additional boot disc. I've tried booting in safe mode, and last good configuration, and normal. I've tried using a boot disc from one of my other pc's but they are mfg by micro electronics and don't work with hp. Any possible solutions?

Unmountable boot volume errors are frequently overcome by running the chkdsk /r command.
