Good Day
Just wanted to share my new experience.
If your Windows XP fails to run due to an error related to missing HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then run "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and remove it. Launch "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot
Cheers,
Carl
Good Night. Carl, just be aware that when you play the Windows XP CD backwards it delivers satanic messages. More alarmingly if you play it forwards it installs Windows...Quote:

hehe... Macs are just as lame as PCs in my opinion. What's soooo much better about them and Apple compared to Microsoft and whatnot? I use 'em both and they both cause the same amount of swearing at the monitor (a lot). Plenty of evil nasties everywhere. Sure... anyone with the market share of a Microsoft should be looked upon suspiciously and yeah windows is a copy of the mac interface. On the other hand I-tunes rates right at the top of the highly evil nasty list. And then there's "Do no evil" Google (evil).
Agree with where you're coming from MG. How about the "MFs" (Mac Fully Superior) brigade. Get any sort of life you desperate following loser nerds. And also PCs can go to hell.Quote:
