Hi Chris -
Are you interested in learning how to do these things? If so, ask questions on what you don't understand instead of just ignoring the carefully presented steps to complain that they're too hard.
You don't have to lose any of your data if you copy it out using the Repair CD. There are pictures showing how this is done here: Copy & Paste - in Windows Recovery Console
I would do that first.
You have already booted the Repair CD to attempt Startup Repair several times, correct? Well this time on the screen where it shows a Win7 installation to Repair, click on Load Drivers link to locate your files by clicking Computer, then C, then Users, then your User name, then whatever folders you have data in.
Copy each file you want by dragging it to the explorer bar at left and dropping it into the external HD, DVD or flash stick listed under Computer. If you have a bunch of files on, say, Documents then just drag the entire Documents folder to your external HD, DVD, or flash stick.
Next, if you will download and burn to CD free Partition Wizard bootable CD, boot it and post back a camera snap showing the drive map and listings (or typing out their labels) we can possibly see what is wrong and help you repair it better.

It's up to you. We assume you come here to learn enough to get things fixed.
