[QUOTE="vandort, post: 1318987, member: 164994"] Hi Anyone, I have a PowerBook with the Intel processor running 10.7. I recently, using bootcamp installed XP. After a while it crashed on me. I tried reinstalling and it came up with the error that the HAL.DLL was either corrupt or damaged. No matter what I tried, I kept getting the same message. The only option was to reformat the partition and reinstall, I was informed. This I did and still got the same error. So I tried to remove that partition, reinstalled OSX. The partition remained. I wanted it off. Then I reformatted (erased) the Hard drive and reinstalled the software. Now this is where it becomes interesting! Since then I can only reboot in safe mode. I have tried all the repairs and verifications and they all report OK. But I still get only a blue screen on normal startup. Any help to sort this will be gratefully received. [/QUOTE]
