Problem With booting XP

My XP won't boot I've tried last know goog config. I've tried safe boot. On normal boot it gets to screen where it is loading then the screen goes blank and nothing happens. I was just wondering is there any floppy's that I can reboot XP from. Thanks

Put in your XP disk and boot from the cd and choose the repair option or you can try and reinstall Xp over top itself.

Use the system restore from the command line.

Tried to boot in safe mode command prot. only didn't work so I tried to boot in safe mode and this is the message I get. Windows could start because the following file is missing or corrupt.<windows root>\system32\hal.dll. You I have had a problem a while ago.Thanks for the quick response.
