Since none of all that interacts at all with the steps given in Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start which are what work best to fix unbootable Win7, do this now:
Set the Win7 HD first to boot in BIOS setup, trigger the DVD or Repair CD using the one-time BIOS Boot menu key at boot.
Boot into Windows 7 DVD System Recovery Options or Windows 7 System Repair Disk to Mark Win7 or it's 100mb System Reserved Partition (preferred if you have it) Active.
Then run Startup Repair - Run up to 3 Separate Times until Windows 7 starts and it's boot partition holds the System Active flags.
If this fails when System Reserved partition is marked Active, move the Active flag to Win7 partition itself and then try the 3 repairs again.
