You might fix it by performing a Repair Install. Michael Stevens has posted a step-by-step tutorial on performing a repair install of XP.

did you try repair with the win 7 dvd only with this drive on the mobo

Windows 7 Forums has a step by step W7 Repair install here. Be careful, the article is about one screen down the page - you do not need to download anything on the page.
You will need your original W7 installation disk or thumb drive.
There are a lot of steps, but t easier than a XP Repair install.
