Unmounted volume

Solved
Hello,

Issues with an NTFS external disk that is inaccessible, and with "diskmgmt.msc" it reports: Volume not mounted; what does that mean? Is there a solution...

Thank you

Configuration: Dual-boot Ubuntu, XP / FireFox

  1. Hello.

    Is your external hard drive formatted? Have you changed systems or were you using your external hard drive on another computer?

    Best regards.

      No, it's a backup disk and I'm trying to read it today.

      1. Hello.

        Turn off your PC, connect the disk to a USB port at the back of the machine (and to the power outlet if it comes with a power supply) and restart the PC.

        Best regards.

        1. Hello,

          I did as you said, and since the computer restarted everything is working normally. I'm relieved to have found backups. It's a strange phenomenon that I've never encountered before.

          Thank you, and I wish you a great New Year's Eve and a wonderful year 2011.

          :-)
