OK time to work outside of windows .. Do you have a spare USB stick ?
Download the following three programmes to your desktop :
1. WiNTBootIc
2. Windows 7 64bit RC
3. Farbar Recovery Scan Tool x64
Extract wintoboot to your desktop
Insert a USB drive of at least 1GB
Run Wintoboot
Drag and drop the Windows 7 ISO to the programme in the space indicated
Tick the Format box and accept the warnings
Press Do It
You will see it progressing
It will let you know when it is done
Then copy FRST to the same USB
Insert the USB into the sick computer and start the computer. First ensuring that the system is set to boot from USB
Note: If you are not sure how to do that follow the instructions Here
When you reboot you will see this although yours will say windows 7. Click repair my computer
Select your operating system
Select Command prompt
At the command prompt type the following :
notepad and press Enter.
The notepad opens. Under File menu select Open.
Select "Computer" and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad.
In the command window type e:\frst64.exe and press Enter
Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive.
The tool will start to run.
