Hi Folks!
Just wanted to share my new experience.
If your Windows XP fails to run due to an error corresponding to missing HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Just boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then launch "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and delete it. Run "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot

Note that this is for Intel based systems only (mainly laptops) and you would be well advised to IMAGE your disk BEFORE YOU TRY THIS just in case something happens and you cannot load your system (IMAGE, IMAGE, IMAGE!!!)
Once you have your disk images precede with the following:
Backup your registry or make a restore point just in case.
Under search: regedit Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\
Locate: folder "iaStor" Under "iaStor" you will find a folder named "Parameter" > delete this folder
Locate: folder "iaStorv" Under "iaStorv" you will find a folder named "Parameter" > delete this folder
