I don't know if problem like mines has been posted because look through the sticky about OS and i didn't find a similar problem. A few days ago i was try to reinstall Windows xp and everything was running smoothly until i accidentally shut the power. Now when i start the computer it saids
"Window could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<Windows root>\system32\hal.dll
It saids to reinstall a copy of the above file.
I don't know how to reinstall the file. Also I have try just reinstall the OS and said the same message. I configured the bios so that the cd-rom drive would boot first but the same message appear. The motherboard i use is ASUS P4S800. If anyone know how to fix the problem tell me. Thanks
