If the sfc shows nothing use this tutorial

Repair Install

Look at the tip in step 5

If you do not have a Windows 7 with SP1 installation DVD/USB, then you can download the latest official Windows 7 with SP1 ISO file here: Microsoft: Windows 7 Direct Download Links, and use Windows 7 USB-DVD Download Tool to create a bootable DVD or USB flash drive with the ISO to do the repair install from within Windows 7 using this step.

i dont have any dvd blanks or a working flashdrive its write protected and needs fixed and i only have one computer

Dude said:

Usually usb drives a a slide lever to disable write protect, and a blank dvd isn't to expensive. Just trying to help you:)

the flashdrive is a sandisk cruzer glide 32gb the ont thing that moves on it is the slide that reveales the usb and thats all

Dude said:

Try disc management and format the usb drive

i did i even tried forcefully taking ownership and force formating and nothing worked im thinking id need something cmd related to fix it

oh sweet i will try that also i did sfc /scannow and all 5 times it said noting is wrong

Dude said:

Good Luck!

if i can get my flashdrive to work then i can do a repair using win7 usb repair
