I just woke up here in Berlin and see what's transpired since we had you started on this last night. I'm shocked and surprised at the MBAM update problems but never recommend MBAM Real Time in addition to MSE unless there is chronic infection which it resolves in every case I've seen.
The "pending Repair" error can often be overcome by trying new Win7 installation media or System Repair Disk, or exporting and rewriting the bootsect code with bootrec/bootsect commands given.
There are also many other steps in Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start which can be tried so you know you tried everything possible.
That you are unable to install Win7 is further indication you may need to try new media.
Work through these steps for Overcoming Windows 7 Installation Failures - Windows 7 Help Forums which resolve 90% of installation failures.

@Yard Dog Not really. I've tried using a Recovery Disk that I had and it kept doing that error. I had to start from scratch.
@gregrocker I was trying all options you gave me in the specific order you said and I still kept getting the "pending Repair" error. I believe it's because my computer needs more than just a small repair.
@Golden Thanks a lot. I'll look into that and read it in full detail. Thanks a lot.

To force Factory Recovery disks to run sometimes requires wiping the hard drive with Diskpart Clean Command.
One should always be able to boot into System Recovery Options on the disk no matter what repairs are required. Sometimes it requires resetting the BIOS to defaults from BIOS setup to boot a disk, though.
Be sure to monitor System Restore space apportionment on the disk, and that your points are not deleted by any Defrag operation: System Protection - Change Disk Space Usage
This information is in case you want to upgrade to Win7, or for others who find this thread.

What happens alot is that the Clean Install is not looked at carefully enough and the correct cd's/dvd's are not made and used.

Well viewing the topics here on this site and on the Wilders site as well as our own the number of users affected so far appears to be very low. Hopefully once businesses open tomorrow the numbers don't climb too high.
Generally speaking one should be able to use Robocopy to copy files from one to another if they are both the same version of Windows.

Yeah no. That would of just led me back to the blue screen of death. Like stated by gregrocker. My system files were quarantined which makes it impossible to get bypass unless something magical happens and the system files reverted back to the same place they belong. Then "Selecting last known good configuration" would work.
@AdvancedSetup
Or is that just because you guys don't have a big user base like AVG does? Most people I ask what anti-virus/malware protection they use and they list a bunch of stuff like AVG, Avast, SystemCore, .etc.
None of them know or have heard of Malwarebytes. It's funny that you said there isn't much talk about this error that's been going around because there are only a select few that use this crappy protection. I included and I dealt with the errors that obviously the developers failed to do.
