No, 'updated' my 'hal driver' from "ACPI Multiprocessor PC" (PIV) to
"Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC" (PIII) . Then, after
for example a hardware upgrade to a new motherboard, I want to rollback to
"ACPI Multiprocessor PC".

I'm using PowerQuest Drive Image, but in fact I reproduced this problem with
a single PIV PC, just installing in it Windows XP (no SP), 'updating' the
hal driver to the PIII hal, installing WinXP SP2, and rolling back to the
original PIV Hal driver => BSOD

No, the OS cannot boot in any mode, it allways blue screens giving an error
related to ntfs.sys.

It cannot boot at all so...
Since you told me about imaging, I just wanted to tell you about how
problematic is this for us: we have lots of WinXP Workstations with PIII
motherboards, where we installed SP2. Now, if we upgrade this motherboards
to PIV, we cannot use the PIV hall driver (we cannot roll back the hal
driver to the original PIV hal)....
