I did a search on google and rebuilt the boot.ini and it worked so i booted into windows and got off all the important doc's and what not. So i went into the boot.ini and removed the one that i rebuilt and now it wont let me log into windows. So am i suppost to leave the rebuilt on on the boot.ini or what?
 
I copied mine from my computer XP PRO on to her's same XP PRO and nothing. i can boot into safe mode sometimes other times i cant. I managed to copy stuff over on the partion while i was on in safe mode. I dont understand why it works sometimes and others it wont. I get a blue screen that comes up so quick i cant read it at all. Looks like i will have to format it i guess.......
 
You mean "hal.dll"?
Boot from XP disc, enter recovery console.
Type bootCFG /Rebuild (don't forget the space)
Type bootfix
Exit & reboot.
 
I did that and it wont work. Yeah i did a typo its hal.dll. What do i do for the name and what not for the boot.ini when i got it to work it just system errored the whole time
 
XP Repair install

Boot the computer using the XP CD. You may need to change the boot order in the system BIOS so the CD boots before the hard drive. Check your system documentation for steps to access the BIOS and change the boot order.
When you see the "Welcome To Setup" screen, you will see the options below
This portion of the Setup program prepares Microsoft
Windows XP to run on your computer:

To setup Windows XP now, press ENTER.

To repair a Windows XP installation using Recovery Console, press R.

To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3.

Press Enter to start the Windows Setup. do not choose "To repair a Windows XP installation using the Recovery Console, press R", (you Do Not want to load Recovery Console). I repeat, do not choose "To repair a Windows XP installation using the Recovery Console, press R".
Accept the License Agreement and Windows will search for existing Windows installations.
Select the XP installation you want to repair from the list and press R to start the repair. If Repair is not one of the options, read this Warning#2!
Setup will copy the necessary files to the hard drive and reboot. Do not press any key to boot from CD when the message appears. Setup will continue as if it were doing a clean install, but your applications and settings will remain intact.
If you get files not found during the copying stage.

Blaster worm warning: Do not immediately activate over the internet when asked, enable the XP firewall before connecting to the internet. You can activate after the firewall is enabled. Control Panel - Network Connections. Right click the connection you use, Properties and there is a check box on the Advanced page.
 
Try the "fixmbr" command. Maybe it'll help. You don't have to do a repair install, I had this error before.
Also try a scandisk ("chkdsk /p")
 
tried all the above things nothing worked still got errors with the new install ended up reformating it
