Hi,
When I attempted to start my computer, which is running Windows XP
Professional Edition, this morning, I received an error message saying
Invalid Boot.ini
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
Windows\System32\Hal.dll
I researched this issue in the Microsoft Knowledge Base, which said to boot
from the Windows XP CD-ROM and use the Recovery Console to perform the
repairs. However, when I did, it said that Windows could not detect any hard
drives and could not continue.
How do I fix my computer???
