If Windows 7 fails to complete boot up in normal or safe mode

I have hdsentinnel on both laptops. On the good laptop it has health @100%.  The bad laptop has given me a problem previously and it has one weak sector and it claims 99%.
I ran chkdsk/f on it about a month ago and I also have done virus scans malabytes and hitman. Also JRT & adaware.

I will wait for Shane because he is one of a kind. I think it has to do with the registry because it did two days ago a windows update of 20 some files on automatic and it did that once before about a week ago. When going through windows repair it says there are no restore points and there were many of them.

I do have backups of about 3 weeks ago but I would like to learn from this because it boots to a point as I showed above.
I have Glary on and Glary had a problem about a year ago with this file BootDefragDriver.Sys which according to glary would be loaded right where the bootloader quits and fails with all drivers.  A fix for that is to delete that file but I don't have that file.

It would be great if Shane was able to tweak the program that it could do its magic on a usb connected hard drive.

Thanks

Boggin:
I've sent Shane the email, so it will just be a case of waiting.

Thank you Mr B

Shane:
I made a page showing different ways you can restore the registry
http://www.tweaking.com/articles/pages/tweaking_com_registry_backup_online_help,3.html

If restoring the registry doesnt help you could have windows repair try to work, if you cant get safe mode up you will have to run it in normal windows, just make sure any AV is turned off and try to close any background programs you can, then make sure the program does ALL the repairs.

Without knowing what the problem is on the computer WR may or may not help, but it is worth a shot :-)

Shane, I just looked at the first video on the first page.  You make it look easy.

I'll play with it tonight or tomorrow.
