Well, let's hit it at a different angle.

Do you have win7 DVD?

If you download SFCFix.exe by Niemiro, pop your DVD in and run SFCFix.exe

Follow Instructions.

Then try FIXit and SURT again.

Thanks for continued assistance. I do not have the DVD.

Little more explanation on am not administrator.

Who is the administrator? You can't make changes to a computer, download, install & run executable programs without administrator rights.

What version of Win7 do you have x32 x64?

If you have x64 check your PM (private message)

SFCFix.exe by Niemiro
