Indeed, but the OP would have to extract halxxx.dll from this cab
file. Remember - his machine does not boot and I suspect that he
cannot extract files from a cab file while in the Recovery Console.

When I last installed Windows XP with a new SP3 OEM disk an SP3 cab
folder was placed at c:\windows\drivercache\i386\sp3.cab

I agree that using the Recovery Console is not easy. My first
thought was to replace hal.dll from the backup copy on the hard
drive. I used the link because it had clear instructions on using
the Expand command.in the Recovery Console.

If you have a backup copy of the System32 folder then this strategy
would be your best option. See also my reply to Tim Med***.
