...Load needed DLLs for kernel... Tuesday, January 22, 2008 at 6:58 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Canuckasian (2 messages posted) Hello all! Windows XP can't start. This is what I get: "multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\Windows\system 32\ntoskrnl.exe multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\Windows\system 32\hal.dll multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\Windows\system 32\KDCOM.DLL Windows could not start because of an error in software. Please report this problem as: Load needed DLLs for kernel. Please contact your support person to report this problem." I am able to access recovery console and ran a few commands but had no luck there. I can't boot the system into anything else. What do I do? I am ready to tear my hair out because I have spent hours upon hours on this problem . By the way, the Windows XP comes with the used IBM machine I 've just bought recently so I don't have any related CDs. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Take care.
