Cool way of doing things!

Have you tried pressing F8 when booting and choosing 'last known good config'?

Also, just to confirm, have you tried booting from the win 7 DVD and choosing repair? I know you've tried with the system repair disk ..
Another option would be to do a 'upgrade' installation of 7. This will hopefully repair the corrupted files as well as allowing you to keep your files and folders..

Does selecting the option "Launch Windows Startup Repair (Recommended)" do anything?
