HAL.DLL message

by wesley.chin . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

I had posted this question yesterday, but it appears that it did not go through or somehow got erased. Anyways, this is the problem:

I have this message

“Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt \system32\hal.dll. Please reinstall a copy of the above file.”

The message appears before the Windows GUI begins to load.

The machine is Win XP Pro w/SP2

Any help is greatly appreciated.
