Hi venkat2374,

It appears like your T42 doesn't have service partition. Re-installing Windows will almost certainly solve the problem. Nonethless, if you're a techie, you might be able to solve the issue without having to install Windows by following solutions here:- http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=+site:forums.techguy.org+%3CWINDOWS+ROOT%3E+SYSTEM32/HAL.DLL%3E&ei=837xSs2bLJf6kAX_1eSFBw&sa=X&oi=forum_cluster&resnum=4&ct=more-results&ved=0CB8QrQIwAw

Hope it helps.
