Try install vb5 runtime ... Also the program sfc.exe should help you. For more informations try search this forum and the FAQ .

Just asking here... Have you re downloaded the HL client again and made sure that all other applications including anti virus software are shut down before install?
Reboot after install to just to be sure aswell.
