I was installing the Recovery Console and rebooted the system. I selected Recovery Console at startup and get the error message "<Windows Root>system32\hal.dll missing". The Recovery Console would not start. How do I copy this file to Windows?1 person needs an answerI do too

This can be difficult to cure, but here are a number of possible reasons/solutions http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/missinghaldll.htm and a number of links here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314477 and here http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_haldll_missing.htm Good luck.

Thank you. I will try these links.
