Corrupt Registry prevents Windows 7 boot
I've got a windows 7 box that will not boot because of a missing or corrupt System Registry. I ran through the startup repair about 10 times. It tried to fix me up, but eventually reached the point where it said it couldn't repair the issue. When I view the results of the scan, everything is successful with the exception of the registry which it states is corrupted. It attempted to roll back the registry and failed.
I apparently have no backups or system restore points.
I can run regedit from the comand prompt within the repair, so I suppose I could try importing another registry, I have another PC running the same version of Windows 7, but I'm not sure if that will do me any good or not.
Is there a command line utility that can repair or rebuild my registry? Should I try to import another registry? I'm willing to try anything to avoid a fresh re-install.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
