I ran across the same problem. I used chk disc utility on a hiren's bootable usb. It found and fixed the errors on the main volume and it rebooted up without a problem after that.
The cause is a corrupted boot.ini or bad harddrive. Try running chkdsk from the command console. Check the links below for more info on how to do this:
Unmountable boot volume is most likely an indication of a failing hard drive. Boot to your Windows CD and run CHKDSK /R and see if issue resolves. If it doesn't then you are probably replacing the hard drive.
i) i think you hard disk or hard drive(of your laptop or desktop) is malfunction or not working properly..... or it has gone bad, i think you have to send it for repair or replacement;
error messge: unmountable boot volume is specifically for harddisk malfunction and requires repairing or replacement(strictly)
