Hi Dakota.

Lets try this method to repair your system:

1. Download the portable version of Windows Repair (All In One) from here, Windows Repair (All In One). (Make sure you have your computer running in a clean boot state BEFORE running repairs. If you need assistance with performing a clean boot then follow the instructions here, How to perform a clean boot in Windows)

2. Download the portable zipped folder to your desktop.

3. Extract the contents of the zipped folder, and then right click on the Repair_Windows.exe file and select run as administrator.

4. After the program opens, click on the Step 3 tab and click the Do It button to have the program run Check Disk on the file system. Screenshot.

5. After the computer finishes running Check Disk, start the program again and proceed to Step 4.

6. Click on the Step 4 tab and click on the Do It button to allow the program to run the System File Checker to find and fix any corrupt Windows files. Screenshot.

7. After SFC finishes, proceed to the Step 5 tab.

8. On the Step 5 tab go ahead and create a new system restore point before starting the repair by clicking on the Create button under the System Restore area. Screenshot.

9. Once that is done click on the Start Repairs tab.

10. On the Start Repairs tab click on the Start button and select Run when prompted. Screenshot.

15. After the repair process finishes, the computer will be rebooted.

16. See if there is any difference after performing the above steps.

 

Do you have any precious data on that computer? If you don't then I would recommend performing a clean install with a Windows 7 Service Pack 1 DVD that you can create yourself.

I wouldn't advise using that computer without Service Pack 1 anyway so I think performing a clean install with a Windows 7 Service Pack 1 DVD is a smart move.

Is this something that you would like to do?

 

You will need to create a Windows 7 DVD to install the Windows 7 OS. You can find Windows 7 SP1 ISO files here, Windows 7 SP1 ISO Image Downloads.

You will need to download a torrent client to download the Windows 7 ISO image. Download the portable version of uTorrent and run the program.

After the program opens, click on the add link button and paste the download link of the Windows 7 ISO file that matches the version of Windows 7 that you have installed.

Once you have downloaded the ISO file you want, download and run the portable version of Active ISO Burner and burn the Windows 7 ISO file to a DVD.

After you have created your Windows 7 DVD follow the instructions from here to perform a clean installation of Windows 7, How to Do a Clean Installation with Windows 7.

 

Ok but are they recovery disks or some other disks? I would suggest just creating your own Windows 7 SP1 DVD and then reinstalling Windows using your newly created DVD.

 

Well is there someone that you know who is technical with computers that could help to create a Windows 7 SP1 DVD for you?

 

Thanks for the follow up.
