LOCALE and DEBUG missing/not set in Win7 Recovery

I recovered from a non-boot Win7 using the Command prompt, and this was my boot file listing after I was successful in booting back into my Dell latitude :


Everything ran fine, and then I saw the following when I re-visited the X:\Sources> recovery media :

...suggesting that I needed further repair/recovery.

I fussed about it for awhile, but then agreed to the repair which re-wrote the boot files as this :


This looks alot more normal to some of the examples seen on the internet, but most of those other's have a value for LOCALE (usually "en-US"), and DEBUGOPTIONENABLED as "Yes". I am guessing that LOCALE assigns the keyboard preferences, and DEBUG is something I may have trouble understanding enough to utilize fully.

Do these two listed items make for much of a difference in functioning - and if so - is there a procedure to set them specifically as have been seen otherwise ?
