While booting from cd, on command line of recovery console bootcfg /rebuild immediately failed, chkdisk on my 80 gb hd was running for more than 30 hours until i interrupted it. d:\i386\hal.dl_ c:\windows\system32\hal.dll or d:\i386\hal.dl_ c:\windows\system32 cannot be executed because Access is denied. But i was never prompted for administrative password! Should i wait for chkdsk to the very end since nothing else works? Any ideas how to boot from hd? Please help auntie!
If it was running for more than 30 hours, it wasn't doing much. You can try copying hal.dll off of a known, good-working XP pc, and replace it with the one on your broken PC. It's better if you extract it from i386 folder but grabbing it from another pc should work fine.

Copy hal.dll - that's what i started from - "d:\i386\hal.dl_ c:\windows\system32 cannot be executed because Access is denied. But i was never prompted for administrative password! " Well, anyway, i think, problem is with some boot files, like boot.ini. System just doesn't see the os. When i tried to boot from cd to repair os, i pressed Enter on the first screen and wanted to press R, but... it was not available! Like there is no os at all. Cannot retrieve data via usb adapter from another computer either; it didn't show usb drive at all. Well, i am not giving up just yet, and any ideas are surely welcomed.

Hal.dll error occurs because of 2 reason. First need to reconnect the RAM memory and need to fix errors on harddrive. For that first open cpu cabinet if it is desktop then reconnect the RAM memory on motherboard.Then check. If still same error then boot computer with windwos disk then enter in recovery console then type in prompt "chkdsk /r" without "' then press enter then press "y' then it will fix and recover errors on harddrive then it will work fine .
