If you can get or have an win7 install cd boot from that and try fixing it often this works as its not loading corrupt files in windows

Thanks for the reply and the suggestion, but that is one of the things I already did, as listed in the first post, and I don't seem to be able to boot off the laptop's DVD drive, at least (I also tried booting a Linux Live session from the same drive, and it didn't boot, either, so it might be there is a hardware problem with the drive - by the way, if I managed that, would it give any options?).

That is why I am considering trying an external one, but would there be anything to do before resorting to that?

Thanks again.

Can you copy dvd to usb and bot from that on another pc

You mean, the recovery media DVD? If so, copy by creating ISO/burning it to the flash drive?
