O.P. RE: Missing or corrupted HAL.DLL
Shawn, I installed the cloned disk in the SAME identical PC I was using the source disk, so the mobo, chipset, cards, etc are all IDENTICAL, except of course the hard drive which is a different one. I've cloned hard drives before and they all were succesfull, this time only I encountered this problem. Before the cloning was done on destination hard drives with only one partition (and this time the HD has 2 partitions as said above). I also did not check the option to copy the Master Boot Record, because I thought it might delete the partitions. Does this make any difference? Also, what's the procedure to repair the HAL.DLL file using the Microsoft recovery console?
