Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt.
<windows root>\system\hal.dll.
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
i cant log onto windows or anything, just this screen.
I was told that i need to re-install windows to fix the problem so thats easy enough, then i was told when i re-install it i'll loose all the music , pictures etc.. off it. Not sure if thats right?
If it is , is there any way of fixing the problem without loosing everythin? as theres alot of things on it that are important to me.
I had a similar problem with windows 2000 a while ago, i posted on here and i had to make a disc and that sorted the problem, i tried the disc for this aswell but nothing..
Anyone help please? Thanx in advance
