Create a Windows 7 System Repair Disc:

Note: the below can only be done if your machine has a a type of CD/R or DVD/R optical drive installed. Also depending on the exact type of OEM your machine has you may be unable to actually create a SRD.

• Click on Start(Windows 7 Orb) >> Run..., then copy/paste the following command into the box and click on OK:
  
  

  recdisc.exe 

  
  
• Allow the UAC(User Account Control) prompt via selecting Yes.
  
• You should now see a menu like the below:-

• Put a blank rewritable CD/DVD in your optical(CD/DVD) drive and then click on Create disc.

A blank CD/R or DVD/R can be used also...

• Note: If a AutoPlay window pops up, just close it.
  
• When the SRD has been created you will see similar to the below:-

• Now click on Close >> OK.
  
• You now have a Windows 7 System Repair Disc.

Please note: The above can be created with either a 32 or 64 bit Operating System. However the disks are not interchangeable...IE a 32 bit Startup Repair Disk cannot be used on a 64 bit Operating System and vice versa otherwise damage may be caused rather than any actual repairs implemented.

The differences between the aforementioned can be read in this Microsoft Article:-
