Default [Fixed] blue screen of death

I have recently closed down windows to change over the speakers. and when i restarted it i got the dreaded :x "blue screen of death":x

Normally i can resolve this issue by erstarting the computer and booting into safe mode then erbooting into normal mode, (yes even after not doing anything in safe mode) but this time i have tried all possible avenues.
I am a complete loss as i have all of my new web site info on there. any suggestions please

i apologise for my lack of details about the "BSOD". it was actually an "unmountable boot volume"

but it's not a problem anymore, I have since run the repair function and fixed it. here are the details of how i achieved it:

I booted the computer with the Windows XP cd in the drive. when everything loaded up and i was left at the "welcome to the setup" screen i pressed "R" to enter into the command line. then i typed "chkdsk /p" (without the quotes). once the scan had finished i then typed "fixboot" and then pressed "Y" to confirm. problem solved.

If that does not fix your problem then try this:

Replace "chkdsk /p" with "chkdsk /r"

i hope it helps as much as it helped me
