Re: Graphics Preferences

In this order, 2D, Hand Painted and Full motion video if properly produced.

And I agree with middletoe
For some reason I like the color palettes used in 256 color games from the 1990's …..

There are a few places where you can download the files to make a floppy bootable disk, I am not sure of their safe to use site, but you could also look for places to do this: This one is from Major Geeks, very reliable but is for XP Professional: https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/windows_xp_...

Re: XP Won't Boot

Ok, but what I meant was that if possible, you replace the Windows Root>\system32\hal.dll file while in the Safe mode with a good file that you copied from a reliable source or directly from your CD. Again, I know it has been a long time for me and XP, but I do remember being able to do similar fixes.

Re: XP Won't Boot

Have you tried starting your XP in safe mode? (I don't remember if XP has a safe mode, has been a long time). If there is a safe mode and you can get it started, then maybe you can replace the corrupted file while in safe mode.
