RE: [Xen-users] GPLPV drivers problem

I've also followed this method and had success. The only caveat is that when I booted with the /hal=halxxx.dll switch, it automatically installed the new HAL permanently - I didn't have to update any drivers or anything like that.

It certainly isn't impossible. I did it a few days ago.
It isn't even that hard and is documented on the internet in various places. Basically, what I did was:
. find the acpi hal (on CD or from another machine) and copy it to your 'Standard PC' machine and call it c:\windows\system32\hal_xxx.dll
. create a new boot.ini entry the same as the others but with /HAL=hal_xxx.dll added
. reboot and select the new boot.ini entry - this selects the ACPI hal on a temporary basis.
. update the hal driver to the ACPI hal using device manager
. reboot
. make sure you backup your system first :)
