i have a gateway m520 laptop with windows xp home. i got the above message yesterday
(screen is black) and says "windows could not start because the following file is
missing or corrupt: windows root\system32\hal.dll. Please re-install a copy of
the above file." tried to reboot in safe mode. received the same error. do not
have any original disks from manufacturer, as they were lost in a recent move. what
are my options? i should mention that i am computer illiterate. thanks in advance
for your help and expertise.
