However my problem seemed a little too specific to fit in any reasonable search category. I have not combed these forums in that much detail, so if this has been answered elsewhere, please re-direct me. My Dell inspiron 530s desktop has a CD/DVD drive that has been non-functional for almost a year now. I never bothered to fix it or troubleshoot I never used it much. However now I regret this. My Vista is not booting up. It appears to start to the point where the green progression bar starts off, but that keeps on going and it never starts Win. Eventually I get a blue screen of death. I read online that someone else had this same problem, but was able to fix it by using the recovery disk and rebooting using the Dell recovery disk, however I cannot do that since my CD/DVD drive is not working. I tried going into Bios, but it doesnt recognize the drive. I tried safe mode and last good restart, but no use. It seems like USB boot might be an option, however I don't have any experience with that, and I am not sure if it will work. Experts out there, please let me know how I can solve my problem when none of my drives are working. I have attached a screenshot of my blue screen for the error code (which to me is gibberish), but could help pro's out there. Thanks in advance...

That is what volsnap.sys is. But this can also be a virus if the file isn't the correct one located in the system32 folder. Unfortunately, you're gonna need a working optical drive.

mode that the operating system is attempting to use for the operation may not be recognized. The I/O error may be experienced with various media storage devices such as: external hard drives, DVD or CDs, DVD or CD drives, SD cards, or USB sticks/drives. Common causes of the error include faulty hardware, a loose connection between the hardware and computer, outdated hardware drivers, or the IDE channel properties require modification. What Are the Common I/O Device Error Messages? Unfortunately, the I/O device error can generated more than one error message. Some of the most commonly encountered messages associated with the error include: http://www.techimo.com/forum/applications-and-operating-systems/283848-unable-boot-vista-cd-dvd-non-working.html - The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error - Only part of a readprocessmemory request was completed - Only part of a writeprocessmemory request was completed Windows may display a “Windows error code” along with the plain language error message. The I/O device error codes that are associated with the error include: error 6, error 21, error 103, error 105, and error 131. Why Does the http://www.tech-faq.com/io-device-error.html I/O Device Error Occur? There are a number of potential causes for I/O device errors on computers that run the Windows Operating System (OS). These include: - Outdated or corrupt driver installation for the affected hardware device. - Windows using an incompatible transfer mode for the hardware. - Faulty or loose connection with the hardware. - The portable media (CD, DVD, or SD card) is damaged or excessively dirty. Basic I/O Device Error Troubleshooting Before throwing away a “faulty” CD/DVD, or delving into more complex troubleshooting, there are some basic steps computer users can attempt to clear the I/O device error. If the steps do not solve the issue, they may help pinpoint what is causing the error to be thrown and save time in fixing the issue. Step 1 – Restart the computer that is throwing the I/O device error. Step 2 – Attempt to access the disk, drive, or portable media again. Step 3 – If the error is still being thrown, try to access the disk on another computer (if available). This will help identify if the error is with the drive, IDE channel, or media (disk) itself. Step 4 – If the disk/media opens on the alternative computer, there is an issue with the primary PC (drive, IDE, or connecti
