    Go back to the System recovery

    Choose command prompt

    If you received missing bootmgr

    Type the highlighted text below

    BootRec.exe /fixmbr and press enter

    You could also try

    BootRec.exe /FixBoot and press [ENTER]

    I'm not getting that error at all didn't mean to cause confusion.. Althought I did to that already the system still decides to continue to run the startup repair.

    The virus infected was a tr/crypt.xpack.gen3 or such... I deleted the files.

    dxtmsft.dll - Win\SysWOW64\
    licmgr10.dll - Win\SysWOW64\

    You deleted the files and restarted ? That's when you ended up with the boot loop ?

    No, it's been in the boot loop prior to that.

    I tried to mention that I used Hirens Boot CD to log in to run a virus scan and also to free up space on the drive. Unfortunately neither of those helped get into the OS.

    (offline until morning - thanks for the support I really appreciate it. I'll try further tips then.)

    Try running the Startup repair 3 times with restarts in between
