If you wish to re-install windows you will need the windows XP installation CD ROM!
Just boot using the CD! change the boot priority to CDROM!
Then your pc will start using the CD, follow the instructions,
Choose the partition where you want windows to be installed!

Remember that you will lose all your data on your drive!

The last user stated that you would lose all your data. While this can happen. It doesn't have to. If you tell windows to reinstall over the last installation. You can keep all your data. It will even save your documents if you have them in my documents, by renaming the folders. Just reinstall to the same partition to the same windows folder and it will delete windows and reinstall. *not 100% sure.. but use the same username, computer name, account name.

I TOO, am experiencing this problem.
If you want to save your files, before doing anything to drastic;
Turn your HD into a slave, and then after booting on a different computer you'll see your HD as a Local Disk, and then simply keep the files, you want. Meanwhile;

I don't know, if you can move a hal.dll file from an XP (Master) directly into a system32 folder (Slave); you can try that;

Personally, I can't turn my HD into a slave, the HD is completely different from any HD I've seen. So, unless I can move a hal.dll file into my system32 folder some how, looks like I lose everything by re-formatting my laptop.

I just had this problem and i have an HP desktop, so it didn't come with the disks either. (and the thing is like 8 years old so hp phone support no longer supports it) however, hp had partitioned the hard drive with the OS and a bunch of other apps so if there is some kind of fatal boot or other major problem, the computer could be rebooted from the hard drive partition.

even if you don't have an hp, your computer might have something similar. check out your manual under recovery or call the guys you bought it from
