Default Dual boot problem

I'm in the process of evaluating a new Linux distribution.
I have a HP EliteBook 8530p with 4GB RAM with Windows XP installed.

After installing SLED 11 successfully (Had to disable ACPI), Windows doesn't boot anymore. I get the message saying something like missing
hal32.dll.

I guess there is something broken with the boot loader oder boot.ini.

GRUB menu.lst
Code:
title Windows
    rootnoverify (hd0,0)
    chainloader +1
Partition layout:
Code:
Platte /dev/sda: 250.0 GByte, 250059350016 Byte
255 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spuren, 30401 Zylinder
Einheiten = Zylinder von 16065 × 512 = 8225280 Bytes
Disk identifier: 0x80d2f3ee

   Gerät  boot.     Anfang        Ende     Blöcke   Id  System
/dev/sda1           14362       15537     9446220    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2           15538       15799     2104515   82  Linux Swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3               2       14361   115346700    5  Erweiterte
/dev/sda4   *       15800       30401   117290565   83  Linux
/dev/sda5               2       14361   115346668+   7  HPFS/NTFS

Partitionstabelleneinträge sind nicht in Platten-Reihenfolge
sda1 is the primary partition with the boot.ini (D:)
sda5 is the logical partition with windows installed (C:).

Code:
[boot loader]
timeout=1
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
I appreciate any help to solve this problem.
