i have the acer aspire 5672WLMi core duo 1.66, ati x1600 128MB dedicated, 120 GB SATA HDD, 1 gb ddr2 RAM
ok heres my problem:
my laptop was working all fine while i was at college. then i packed it up and went home for thanksgiving break. it was a 3 hr drive and my laptop was sitting in the back seat. i gently set it down as it is my baby.
i got to my house and i turned it on to try to connect to the internet via wireless. i had a little problem connecting so i restarted and it made it to the bios screen, started to load windows, and just as you're supposed to go to the login screen there's a bsod (blue screen of death). so i said hey this has never happened to me so i'll just let it go. i restarted again, and it happened again. so i decided to restart in safe mode. and was got all good until like i said before the bsod again at where the logon screen is supposed to be and restarts.
i even tried loading knoppix 3.8 and 4.0.2 and neither of them would load it would just freeze and stop. i left it for like 10 mins like that and... nothing.
so one of my conclusions is my x1600 is fried, or there is something wrong with my hard drive it gives the
unmountable/boot_volume
and it may be the HDD. i am not sure
does anyone know if i will have to send my laptop back to acer? i still have the 1 year warantee. i just bought this computer in mid august.
Thank you very much to anyone that can help.

Sorry I cant help, but this happen to me on my desktop...
was on fine, restarted, got BSOD....
It was my HD, I put in a old spare one I had on my computerdesk at the time anyway, and well, I am on it now. Never got my HD fixed yet... soon I hope though, just trying to wait untill I get into my geek mode, right now I am in my gangster writin rap songs mode, aha. -
well since i have my hdd partitioned into 2 partitions. one for data one for windows. i was thinking i could just reformat my windows partition. and see how that goes but i want to make sure its not a hardware issue.
so i think im going to reformat my c drive and reinstall windows.

that or when you are in safe mode do a system restore to a previous date, i know it was not caused by some software you put on it. if is not a hardware problem it might fix it. unless you have alread formated you drive.

ok i cant even load into safe mode it just does the bsod before i can go into safe mode lol.
anyways i fixed it
i just put in a windows xp cd and booted into the recovery console and typed
CHKDSK /P
