unmountable boot volume eek well typically that means your file system is damaged and requires you to repair the windows installation via the windows xp disk.  Personally I would format and start the whole installation over with a major problem like that but thats just me.  You could also get that error if you fooled with your bios if you tried to aquire faster udma modes (essentially faster hard drive modes) which I seriously doubt you did.  So, if you have a windows disk make sure your cdrom/dvdrom is the first boot device (use bios boot to change this) and run the setup and hit R for recovery/repair and it should fix the problem.  If you have no important info to lose do the format and start over from scratch.

sweet glad you got a new hd it was either the file system being damaged or corrupt... or the hard drive itself being bad either way this should fix the problem... unless they send you a bad hard drive lol lets hope thats not the case.
