I am currently attempting to install windows xp and get the error:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<Windows root>\system32\hal.dll What did I do wrong and how to I install it
properly so I can actually use my new computer? Any help is greatly
appreciated.

THanks!

You should install xp cd,boot to xp cd (set for this in the BIOS if needed),
at xp cd boot menu,select,install xp,delete the partition,create one,then xp
formats & installs auto...
