• Satellite Pro A300 - System32\hal.dll file is corrupted or missing

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300, which says that the System32\hal.dll file is missing or corrupt.

  Is it possible to repair the file by a recovery by the laptop itself, or do I have to get a copy of Windows Vista to start over and do it this way?

  Hoping to get some possible answers to what to do.

  Thanks Christian

  Hello

  I read that some discussions in different forums and in most cases the new OS installation may solve this problem. The HAL.dll in place in C:\Windows\system32 then maybe you could solve this problem in copy this file from the Vista CD in this folder

  You could start the unit by using a Live CD (linux or windows lice CD called PartBe or WinPE)
  But the easiest solution would be to the recovery procedure

  My Toshiba s5200 701 crashed today.

  Windows displays this error:

  + windows didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: windows root system32 / hal.dll +.

  First of all, this Toshiba is a European model and I live in the USA.
  Second, the model is old.
  Third, I don't have the XP CD reinstal the OS.

  I don't know if it's worth buying a new professional XP for this computer.

  Hello

  I read on issues such as
  You need to reinstall the OS, but it would also be possible that this error is related to the defective HARD and/or RAM disk.
  Many uses had this error again after the new installation of the OS and in individual cases the RAM or the HARD drive has been affected as well.

  What to say; It s your decision what you want to do... I recommend reinstall Win XP once more to verify if this question relates only to lack hal.dll in the system32 folder.
  However the Win XP license is cheap, because Win 7 is on the market and no one wants to use 'old' OS which will be more in the coming years...

• When I start my computer I get a message that says that the file < root windows > \system32\hal.dll. is damaged or missing.

  file HAL.dll

  When I start my computer I get a message that says that the file \system32\hal.dll. is damaged or missing. Please reinstall a copy of the file. I have the original Windows XP CD and I tried to re - install, but it will not go beyond the implementation of window. I can't sign in to windows. How can I reintall this file?

  It's extremely likely that you will need to replace the hal.dll and since there are seven files on the XP installation CD that will extend into hal.dll, which would you choose?  It depends on your hardware, but it is extremely likely that the problem (did I already say that?).  I've never had to replace a file hal.dll for this problem.

  The real problem is most likely that XP just can not find the file because of a file system corruption or a file c:\boot.ini afflicted.

  For this error, I would always be first boot from the XP Recovery Console and sometimes run a chkdsk-r that will fix things right to the top.

  If the chkdsk /r is clean and you have the same problem, and then re-create your c:\boot.ini file but rename the old one first so you don't build on top of those afflicted - this tidbit is absent from MS KB article that assumes too.

  You can do all this in the XP Recovery Console, but do go through these methods in this article and see how you go.

  For example, method 1 will not work if your system does not start.  You may have more luck with other "methods".

  If that doesn't work, then I suggest to provide a little more information about your system:

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a real installation CD bootable XP which is the same Service Pack as your installed Service Pack? (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

• c:\windows\system32\d11872t14.dll missing file

  Original title: c:\windows\system32\d11872t14.dll

  I got a message saying that this file is missing: c:\windows\system32\d11872t14.dll. . How can I get that back?

  It confuses me again why the MS Answers forum does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked because we don't know anything on your system.

  You see only this message when you start your system and then good, things work or come to the top when you do certain things and if so, what do you do when you see?

  I did a Google search on this DLL and did not get any results (except your message), which makes the suspicious file.

  If you see the message when you restart your system and then things work very well after that (for example, after clicking OK), I think I do it in this direction:

  It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.

  I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.

  These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.

  Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.

  There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you do not have a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, the chances are good that your system is currently or has been infected by malware.
  A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
  It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
  Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
  So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

  You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

  If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
  If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
  Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry
  . There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
  Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html
  You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
  Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
  When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
  The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
  Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
  If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
  You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
  Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can just turn it off, restart and if the problem is resolved and things are functioning normally and everything works fine, then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
  Given that your system has or has had an infection, follow up with this:

  If you do a Google search on the name of the files, I think that each result that comes up says it's a kind of malicious software.

• I can't boot after installing the latest win xp updated system - missing or damaged/system32 hal.dll

  I have win xp and that you have installed the latest updates 7 system - now I can't start.

  I get the message:

  Windows didn't start because what follows is missing or corrupted /system32/hal.dll

  I don't have a CD system - which can do? everything I read said to alter, copy, etc., but since I cannot start, I can't do it all.

  Help me please, thanks

  XP trying to tell you that it cannot find the file.  It is extremely likely that the hal.dll file is really missing or damaged (XP just cannot find it).

  You should not have the Windows XP installation CD for this problem.

  It is very unlikely that the manufacturer will be able to you provide a XP installation CD, but contact them if you wish.

  What would you do if YOU were the manufacturer?  Communicate with yourself?

  The instructions in this link to replace the hal.dll file are bad, bad, bad.  If you follow them, you will need to replace the hal.dll file, but it will not be the correct hal.dll file.  There are 7 possible hal.dlls on the Windows XP CD, and check out the generic hal.dll file won't be one you need unless you run a virtual machine.  Clearly, the technical support engineers have never actually solved this problem.

  Notice that the thread is not marked as 'response' by the original poster, but by a moderator of the Forum after a period of 5 to 10 days of inactivity where some MSE posted a link to a few articles in the KB (this is how things work here).

  You should start by making a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console and run chkdsk /r first just to be sure of the file system NTFS is not damaged.  Then see if you can start after that (maybe it won't).

  THEN, you must use the Recovery Console to rebuild your boot.ini file.  I would like to rename the file c:\boot.ini first then you don't rebuild on top of the afflicted (this part is missing from the article).

  I can't understand why Microsoft support engineers seem unable to display instructions to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console.

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton and Spybot.
  AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  Here's how to make a CD of bootable XP Recovery Console:

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  If you still have the same problem (likely), then the value rebuild your file c:\boot.ini as article says here:
