Was trying a different 2nd drive in my PC and this problem came up when I
returned to my original hard-drive configuration:

(Nothing was knowing changed on the system drive.)

Now, on power up, I get a message:

"Please select the operating system to start:

Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Windows XP Professional

Use the up and down arrow keys to {select} ...."

=====================

If the 1st line with "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" is selected, I get
a message that \system32\hal.dll has been corrupted and "Please re-install a
copy of the above file."

If I select the second line of "Microsoft Windows XP Professional,"
everything boots up normally, as it originally did.

How can I stop the system from going to this selection menu and simply have
the start-up go with the second line operation that I now have to select
manually? (Or re-install the copy of hal.dll that the system wants?)

Thanks much for any help.

You'd be best off reposting your question to a newsgroup related to Windows
