Did a few other things...
Tried installing RegistryBooster, and while it said that it fixed my 209 registry issues, I think I'll be going to my refund..
Tried sfc /scannow in order to look for any of the potentially missing Windows files.
Downloaded HijackThis, and the following is the scan log.

After all of this, my computer is still taking quite a while to load, with the blank screen still being present for a good minute or so. Any help would be great!
