Registry Problem

Whenever I boot my computer, explorer.exe does not start, so I manually start it via task manager. I figured this out through a previous thread on this forum. However, I also figured out that a virus had damaged my registry and caused this problem. Whenever I go to system config and tell it to set the boot options to original boot options it gives me the following:
System Configuration cannot save the original boot configuration for later restoration. Boot changes will be reverted.

The volume does not contain a recognized file system.
Please make sure that all required file systems drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted.
I have already run multiple reg cleaning software, and no solution has occurred.
How can I fix this problem?

Hello iMintz
i would try this first, and if it still wont work try using the repair feature on the installation disc, good luck.
To begin, load the command prompt,

Then, type in one of the following commands (followed by the enter key) depending on the type of scan you wish to perform:
  • sfc /verifyonly - To verify any corrupt files only.
  • sfc /scannow - To verify and fix any corrupt files.
This will then start the scan and inform you of any files that require fixing:
