• My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM.

  My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM. It is said it can be repaired by using the original installation CD, but we do not have. Any ideas please?

  The file is missing or corrupt is one of your files in the system registry.

  By far, the best way to recover from this is to go to another computer and create a free Hirens Boot CD.
  Download Hirens: <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/ > (link at the bottom of the icon of the disk)
  Hirens CD burning <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/burning/ >

  Once you create the CD, and then start your system of problem with this CD.  In the first window, select "Mini Windows XP" and wait for the system to start.  When it starts, go to the Hirens Boot CD menu and select
  Register-> Registry Restore Wizard.
  then follow the prompts.  This wizard will return a copy of your registry database from backups that are stored with your system restore points.  After the restoration, stop, remove the CD and restart.

  When you start your system, it is recommended to perform a system restore operation to ensure the consistency of your system

  Also, this error is almost always accompanied, if not caused, the corruption of the file system.  Also a good idea to perform a check disk (chkdsk) operation with the option "repair".

  The hard way to get back is covered in the following Microsoft KB article, but if you have installed a large number of service packs for your installation of XP, I don't give you many chances to get past part 1. (And there's also an installation CD to access the Recovery Console)

• Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: &#60; root windows &#62; \System32|hal.dll, please reinstall a copy of the above file.

   \systrem32\hal.dll

  What can I do with this message:

  Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \System32|hal.dll, please reinstall a copy of the above file.

  Thank you

  In Windows Vista & 7:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/errorh/a/HAL-dll-missing-Windows-7-Vista.htm

  In addition, if the file is actually missing, you can try to boot from a UNIX / Linux Live CD like Knoppix and add/replace the file manually with a file from another PC running THE SAME VERSION OF WINDOWS!

  If you are not good with computers, you should ignore this option because it could cause serious problems. If you still want to try, and there is a hal.dll file in \system32\ BACK IT UP. You have to put back in place.

  Let us know if it works.

• I got a virus and my computer starts is no longer the error message was &#60; root windows &#62; system32\hal.dll

  I downloaded a virus on my computer that wouldn't let my computer startup message wasn't system32\hal.dll Windows didn't start because the following file is missing or damaged.  I went into the recovery console and tried to repair the files what happened was now I can start only on my storage drive and it will stay running only for a few minutes and then the computer shuts down. At startup in the bios it is that one illustrious disc which is my small storage disk not the large drive box and not CD drive. A few days ago everything worked well today can't get to run long enough to fix it.

  What a mess!

  Are you saying that the PC does not see the CD drive? Or that Windows could not see it?
  What is the brand and model of your PC? Are you able to get into the BIOS to see if the CD drive is listed? If so, you can then change order of device for the start-up of the PC then it stops on the CD instead of the hard drive.

  The drive being SATA Seagate, I wonder if you need to make a setting in the BIOS.
  I also wonder what will happen if you remove the Seagate and equip the Maxtor, then start with the disks to run RC. I still think that the Maxtor drive has an MBR on it!
  I think that your first course of action is to see if this CD player works or not (independent of WIndows).

• When I start my computer I get a message that says that the file &#60; root windows &#62; \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?

• Client DHCP does not start because of the dependency

  Suddenly my laptop IBM T61 Windows XP sp3 Pro link is more to my Belkin router either wired or wireless. This started after I hosted a series of Windows to perform updates. Using the command ipconfig and other signs, it seems that the DHCP process no longer occurs. Research in Non-Plug-and-Play Device Manager, I could see that there was a yellow flag next to 'netBT' which is a dependency for a number of services such as DHCP. Windows suggested I uninstall and then reinstall the netBT.sys "driver". Well, it uninstalled OK but it is now out of the list and without him in charge I'm cut network (I have a Vista laptop second Home that I use on the lookout for ideas tech). I moved a copy of netBT.sys from the SP3 i386 folder in system32\drivers to replace the old, just in case.
  How to me netBT to load and work again? I spent several hours restart, activation and deactivation and anything else I could think or find Tech Tips.

  SOLVED. NetBT corrupt registry entry. HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\services\NetBT
  After many hours of detective work, I found the idea in the journal of the events through MSCONFIG. Error type 7001 means service could not start because of a dependency (I knew that), but he went on to say "dir name or path incorrect syntax. I went into the registry and used exactly the same syntax of path as specified in "system32\DRIVERS\netBT.sys" NetBIOS and DHCP service has started.

• Missing or damaged"&#60; root windows &#62; \system32\hal.dll.

  I get the message "Windows cannot start because the following file is missing or corrupt" \system32\hal.dll. It is a Dell computer running windows XP that came preloaded on the Dell. I've been running this computer for years before, without this problem. Can anyone help?

  If the computer is not currently bootable,

  Then, you will need to borrow an xp installation cd to start the computer and run some commands through the function of the CD recovery console.

  Another option, to remove the hard drive and install it as a slave on a functional computer disk.   then use this functional computer and the o.s. to fix the problem on this slave drive.

  Another option is to see if dell experts have a different methodology to fix the error.

  There is a community forum to dell.com dell, where you can ask this question.

  in all cases, the question you have is not uncommon and has been requested and answered thousands of times.

  Can anyone help please?

  WINDOWS COULD NOT FIND START BECAUSE THE FILE IS MISSING OR DAMAGED
  WINDOWS ROOT>\SYSTEM32\hal.dll

  This message is rather misleading.  It happens because the boot.ini file that tells where to look for 'Windows' boot is damaged, so it is looking for the files in the right place - hal.dll is be the first person he's looking for. Set the BIOS to boot CD before the hard drive.  Start the XP CD and at the installation site, take the immediate R for repair.  Assume that any requested password is empty.

  At the command prompt, type:

  H r s C:\boot.ini attrib [press Enter]
  DEL C:\boot.ini [press Enter] [to remove the bad]
  BootCfg /Rebuild [press Enter] [to search an installations of Windows, and make a new one]

  Remove the XP CD and hopefully restart Windows. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
