Solved Windows: GRUB rescue mode, unknown filestream

[uilymmot]

My windows suddenly booted into GRUB Rescue mode and I can't get out of it, I would greatly appreciate any advice on this problem

When I try to run startup repairs I get the error message saying that it is unable to diagnose problems with the return messages:
Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline
Problem signature 1: 6.1.7600.16385
Problem signature 2: 6.1.7600.16385
Problem signature 3: unknown
Problem signature 4: 21200648
Problem signature 5: AutoFailover
Problem signature 6: 3
Problem signature 7: NoRootCause
OS version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
Locale id: 1033

Is there anything I can do short of formatting the whole hard drive and reinstalling windows?

Uninstall GRUB or delete its partition if you haven't already done so.

Mark Active the Win7 or it's 100mb SysReserved Partition (preferred if you have it).

Then run Startup Repair - Run up to 3 Separate Times.
