Windows 7: Windows 7 32bit ultimate Freezes after login screen

I would like if someone can please help me out with an issue i am currently facing. I try to start up windows after entering my password at the screen it loads for a while then i am faced with my desktop background and icons show up. If i move my mouse cursor to the bottom taskbar to click start it has the loading circle. If i click anything on my desktop that wont work either. i tried several things but i dont want to fresh install as i have tons of data and files that i need to keep otherwise i would have just went ahead with the fresh install. The things i tried were



1. tried system repair, but i get this "windows cannot repair this computer automatically"

2. I just tried sfc/scannow and I got the following message:
There is a system repair pending which requires a reboot to complete. Restart windows and try sfc again.

3. i then did the scanow offline command i found it said scanning and then after 20 min i get this "SFC Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation FIX''

4. Memory tool but i can't see results because as soon as i sign in it freezes

5. ctrl,alt ad del dont work screen goes black then i wait till a message pops up and click enter then it brings me back to the desktop

6. i scanned pc with avg and malawarebytes no viruses.

Like i said all help is very much appreciated. I called dell but my protection ran out 2 weeks ago and they want 270 for software help i really dont have that type of money as the mortgage gets taken out and im a little behind if not i would have went that option.

i know i just joined and all, but i need some assistance on this issue i updated it

still in need of serious help

Hang on, don't give up.

Do you have access to another machine? Can you create a bootable CD/DVD and run this?:

RAM - Test with Memtest86+

If you can't do that, check your machine's BIOS to see if there's a memory testing facility there.

If the memory checks out okay you can see if there is a quick hard drive test available in the BIOS. I wouldn't run a long test just yet since you have data there that you need; I'd get a copy of the data first if you suspect the drive might have problems.

Please let us know...

ill try it later today

So far this is what i have

update pass is now at 4

update 7 hrs and no errors 7 pass so i think we can eliminate ram as the problem

Great!

On to the hard drive. Is there a hard disk diagnotics test available in your system's BIOS?

What brand of drive is it?
