Boot from the CD, select Repair your computer, and open a command prompt as you did before and enter the following command: chkdsk /r /f. Let us know if you see that it finds any errors, but it may take a long time to complete.

Also, if you have time after that, run the command sfc /offwindir=C:\Windows.

If neither of those work, it looks like a corrupt file system or failed hard drive.
