I just built a new computer with a Biostar TForce 590 SLI Deluxe MB,
2GB Crucial Memory, 2 Maxtor 160 GB Sata drives, and a HIS ATI Radeon
256 MB pci express video card. It was working, but very slow to boot.
The last hardware I installed was a Saitek Cyborg evo wireless game
controller. I started having boot problems soon after. The first
message was missing or corrupt system32 hal.dll. I just rebooted and
it was fine. Then I lost all my icons and taskbar on the desktop and
it was frozen. Rebooted and it was ok.Today I got the same message,
but wouldn't boot to windows. Same error message, missing or corrupted
system32 hal.dll. I booted from my xp cd to see if I could repair the
installation, but it never gave me that option. What can I do?
