You can post your question in our community. I went to the site you recomended RioRojo and found some very good information there which lead to ultimately repairing the systemroot error. I had windows NT instead of the XP like most of you but basically the same problem. If you do not have a start up disk you can go to the Microsoft site which is listed in the links provided via the site above and download a hidden recovery disk for XP.
I booted from the disk and when prompted I did a "repair". After doing this on three attempts and failing the admin password each time my system started working much to my surprise and delight. Now this may or may not have been a fluke but it worked for me. I have now downloaded the system32 fix program and everything is working find. Not a hard drive issue You have it going on dude that worked thank you very much.
Hi there: I have a similar problem. I have an HP DV The hard drive is in excellent condition and registered not bad sectors nor bad clusters. Here is the thing, when I tried with the restore CDs.
It goes good through the entire process of restore. I tried everything even installing it as an external USB drive. I installed my new mother board and the computer said that i need to reinstall windows.
So I then did my installation thingy. What the hell is wrong! After that I took my brother's laptop and started typing this up. So now could you please help me with this problem? I have the exact same problem. I followed you instructi9ons and it worked fine up until a point. When I try to repair it wants a password for administrator. I give it the one I have enterest after using F2 and setting a password.
It keeps rejecting the password as invalid? What's that all about? After rebuilding the system on a MSI P35 platinum mainboard I restarted the system and everything went well until Windows had to reboot. I got the message invalid boot. To solve it I tried to use the original Windows CD, but that did not work as both the repair and install options just made my computer restart and return to the above error message.
After that I thought that it might be that my hard disk was not properly working missing drivers or something like that , so I created a startup floppy disk and restarted. But nevertheless I could access C and see that the files were still there and accessible. However I can't repair the windows install. What other options do I have to solve this? Currently I've replaced my memory and hdd as been suggested by other sites to no avail.
What makes this fault seemingly like a hardware fault is where I have tried two versions of XP, one the original recovery cd and XP Pro and both have the same error with the hal. The laptop can be OK for hours or days, then suddenly crash with the reported error to the hal. If it is a hardware fault how can it be tested to pinpoint the cause whether it be the CPU or Mainboard as they are all but left to replace.
DLL , if it has change it back to by renaming it hal. I do have a question on the issue! Use the Bootcfg utility in the Recovery Console to correct the Boot.
When you receive the message to press R to repair Windows by using the Recovery Console, press the R key. Select the Windows installation that you want, and then type the administrator password when prompted. When the Windows installation is located, the following instructions are displayed: Add installation to boot list? After you perform the preceding steps, restart the computer, and then select the first item on the boot menu.
This should allow Windows XP to start normally. After Windows XP has successfully loaded, the Boot. For more information about how to edit the Boot.
Back to the top. Press any key to boot from the CD. After the setup files are finished loading press R to repair using Recovery Console. When you are in the recovery console, select the installation to log on to usually number 1 , and then press ENTER. If you receive a prompt to overwrite the file, press Y.
I'm now recieving this message as well and I don't know why. I press F1 and it gives me the same message I press F2 and it sends me back to the setup. So I can't even use the disk apparently. I cannot boot up in any mode, and I have no XP disc since it came pre-installed on my computer. That is the only thing my computer will pull up. No safe mode or anything. How can I get a disc for XP? Does this mean I lose everything on my computer?
Me too, I need my desktop up and running soon, as my laptop is slowly but surely wasting away and can no longer handle what it used to; but every time i boot up i get this message. Now this is probrably a stupid question, but here goes, i have windows XP home edition but have lost the disc however, i do have a XP pro disc. I just wanted to know incase I did this; and did further damage to my pc. Here it is for all of you that may need help with this issue today, found this web site with specific instructions, hope is helpful!
Hello Tigerk: I do not know how to fix the problem but can add that the root is the CPU's cache memory. The fact that this file is in the root is indicative of that a perverted copy of Windows also resides in the CPU's cache. No "restore" disk could fix this problem, a savvy tech would have known that. Both reinforce each other. Very few know that an XP computer can be remotely controlled via cellphone radio. Most "HAL. DLL" infected computers are radio controlled.
Your BIOS means nothing. Goto "start", than "run" Than type "msinfo32" than goto "componants" than to "protocols" than to "internet". The last protocal is the most recent added. Netbios - Check its characteristics. You will see that it supports "broadcasting". That broadcast is cellphone remote control. As of yet Microsoft has done nothing to resolve this issue.
So far the FBI has done nothing either. If you thought the NET was a computers only source of remote access, you are wrong. The error in question will only pop up at startup if the computer is unable to contact the remote controller.
It must have been moved or a blocking "thing" was put in the way. Look it up - see for yourself. I came across your problem when my sister had the same with her pc, we tried several different things with no resolve so I tried this and it worked I'm no pro when it comes to pc's but it might work for you too.
Unplug your drive and put into another XP pc that is working and run your drive as a slave. When I did this with my sisters pc hd my system started up with her drive as a slave it then checked the files replaced a whole bunch and then I set in place a check disc for when it was put back into her tower. We put it back into her tower started it up and bingo disc check done system back up and running. Good luck to all i know this problem is a huge pain in tthe butt i just found out how to fix it I have an Acer PC about 2 years old also.
I am getting the same message. I have the acer restore disks and ran through those ok only until it rebooted and then said the file was missing or corrupt.

Wednesday, December 27, AM. Wednesday, December 27, PM. I am having a similar problem. I am trying to fix my father's computer, and we are getting this same error message. I have tried f8 and f10 neither work. He has XP Home installed but unfortunately we can't find the setup disks so we can't even try to work from the boot disk. We have and old install cd of 95 but we can't get that to work either. I read through the information on that link but I'm not a system administrator and can't even get in via safe mode to where I could go in and change that boot file that link was talking about.
Do you have any other ideas? My dad uses this computer to work from home, so I really need to try to fix this as quickly as possible Im sorry i wish i knew what to advise but im not totally sure. Thursday, December 28, AM. Friday, December 29, AM. Thanks guys, I'll keep checking back to see if anyone finds a resolution. Needless to say he ended up getting his money back, but his computer is still messed up.
Hopefully someone out there knows the answer. Friday, December 29, PM. Tuesday, January 2, PM. If youre dad'd computer is running on the same XP system software you can try fixing it by using the repair option if not theres nothing you can do about it, Only a software can fix a software problems. If you really want to get it up and running again and you dont need all the data on that old pcu just install a fresh copy of your XP.
Theres no web link or patches that can resolve it, I know I tried and what works for me is the one that Im sharing with you. Thats all I can say! That might work I guess I'll try to mail him my XP CD and see if the computer will allow us to replace his old version with mine.
Its worth a shot. Thanks to everyone who's been posting tips and suggestions. I'll let you know if this works for us. Some risk but I haven't had problems losing files and folders on a Dell computer. That is why you need to get the Windows Updates, again. I cannot find the Hweruvijuk. It may be some type of malware. Try downloading Malwarebytes Anti-Malware , update it and do a quick scan. Let me know if it finds anything. The Recovery Console procedure worked for me on the same "corrupt or missing hal.
