    Not sure how. . .but I'm back!

    It took some praying, some cussin' and a lot of trial and error, but I finally have everything running. My thanks to everyone who offered advice, encouragement and prayers I really appreciate everything that was offered and the spirit in which it was done. Many thanks!!:wave::wave:

    Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass....

    It's about learning

    falcon409,
    With all the collective pooter knowledge we have here, I was sure you'd be back up and running soon.
    You don't want me advising you on trouble-shooting. I'm still trying to locate the "bit bucket" on my rig so I can dump it. After 8 years it's gotta be nearly full.

    Yep, things WERE lookin' great, then I updated the BIOS and now it won't go into windows again because of a corrupt or missing hal.dll file in the windows/system directory, lol, lol.

    falcon409,

    Try going in there in safe mode! Should work!

    And a good hal.dll file can be found here: http://rapidshare.com/files/220427822/hal.rar

    and the correct directory for Xp users is c:\windows\system32.

    Well, I did some searching on the other computer and found some info that said to be sure you're booting from the correct drive (I have two internal HDD's and one external). . .sure enough, after switching boot drives. . .I'm back in windows again. I had XP on the other drive from a very long time ago and apparently enough of it is left over to give me that error.

    This has definitely been a learning experience!!!:rapture:
