I have seen lots of articles on this topic but i guess, i should also add my idea to remove this problem without installing new windows. You have noticed these errors like:

cannot find hal.dll, \windows\system32\hal.dll or \winnt\system32\hal.dll

Well! this is the problem we are going to deal with.We can do this by using Windows installation CD. Yes! The Recovery Console is what we are looking for. 

• Restart your computer with Windows Installation CD inside the CD ROM Drive. 

• Set your BIOS to boot from CD first. so that the installation starts automatically.

When this page appears, Choose the second option to enter into Recovery Console.  The next window look like the given below picture.

Enter the Administrator password and press Enter. Now, you have the command prompt to perform the repairing work for "hal.dll error"

Now, type the command given below:

expand  y:\i386\hal.dl_  z:\windows\system32\hal.dll

Where Y is the drive letter of your CD-ROM and Z is drive letter of  the drive, where windows is installed. Usually C: is the default drive for windows installation.

This Command will fix the error. You can now reboot your system to see whether it works or not. If not, then try to repair your windows installation. This way you windows will completely repaired without any data loss of yours.
