I have a very unfortunate issue(crash)

You can use the startup repair that you see.

Is it necessary to do this from a disk(OS/repair) or can I use the startup repair that I see?(as I'd have to go out and buy an external disk drive)

Either that didn't work or I did it wrong.
It still says that the windows installation process cannot begin.

Alright, it appears you may have done the chkdsk command incorrectly, so I will provide better steps.

Use Advanced Boot Options to select Repair Your Computer and get to the System Recovery Options. Then select the command prompt. Do the following:

chkdsk /r c:
chkdsk /r d:
chkdsk /r e:
chkdsk /r f:

.etc until you get the message that the volume could not be opened for direct access. For any drives that do not give the message:
Windows has checked the file system and found no problems
run chkdsk again as above. In other words, if it says:
Windows has made corrections to the file system
after running the disk check, run the disk check again.

I realize you may only have one disk show up in Windows explorer, but you may have more than one disk through recovery options. This is because the system creates a hidden boot partition (which will be C: in recovery), you may have a recovery partition for your PC that is hidden (which will be D: in recovery), and you will have your primary Windows partition (which may be E: in recovery). A custom PC will likely have at least C: and D: to scan.

I ran it on c: and d: which were the only two that I could find aside from x: which gave me the same problem I got when I tried just(chkdsk) the first time. D: was the largest and took about 45 minutes each time.

It still says that the installation process cannot initiate.

Try the steps in: How to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows Recovery Environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

If that does not work, we are running out of options...

-.- BootRec didn't work, considering that I don't even have a windows installation on my computer(that being the problem).

Well that would explain why you cannot get to the login screen. You did not tell us that part.

I would suggest a full format and re-install; or are you trying to recover data? I am really confused now as to what is happening with your system since you did not provide ALL information.

First my computer crashed then I formatted my windows partition or w.e and it was replaced with the Dell windows 7 factory image. I have indeed mentioned it, or did 'The installation proccess cannot initiate.' confuse you? Well I've turned restart on system failure off and received another error upon the beggining of the windows installation plus an automatic disk check on x:.

"Windows Setup experienced an unexpected error. To install Windows, restart the installation."

Is this thread solved as indicated, or do you still need help? I would be glad to provide any assistance that might be needed.

If it is solved, would you mind posting the steps that solved it?

This is not solved, the status was an accident.
I restored my computer to the factory image and it couldn't begin the installation process, after having more half-second bsods at first.

I also gave you the direct information in my first reply to you.
