dear friend,
There are many possible reasons behind this type of error.
Some software or the some system files may be corrupted.
Open the Run window by pressing Windows key+R together & type cmd in the edit field-then hit enter.
It'll open the command prompt.
Type sfc /scannow & press enter.
Wait until the checking process get finished.
Then use system repairing tool to take action against the corrupted sectors.
If this doesn't work then go for system repair.
Insert a bootable windows OS DVD in the drive & restart your computer.
then press any key to boot from DVD.
Set the language, currency & the local time.
Select the drive where you've installed the OS.
Then press R to repair your OS.
Proceed & wait until the process terminates itself.
It'll auto restart itself after the process & hope your problem will get solved now.
If you see further problem then fully format the OS & re-install it again.
Firstly run a system file check to verify and repair your system files.
start>search>right click and run as admin>sfc /scannow
It may need to be run up to three times before successful
This error can be caused by many things, including software conflict, or a file in the OS becoming corrupted.
Way to install it is probably to do a repair install from the win 7 dvd. *It only "affects" the OS files so your data should be safe.
