Windows 7 corruption

I have a machine (Dell Lattitude e6520 - ish) which is not loading.

I have the issue here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itprogeneral/thread/566cdd43-ce91-4e64-93e0-8d09d8fc1ea0

and tried everything on it but still failing to load, restore, replaced class.pnp etc...

Ideas without having to reload it?

Can you try the following? I know it says it's for Vista, but it's the same for Windows 7.

Looks like the NIC has died. But i managed to get the machine to restore from system recovery (somehow) and boots up now.

>> Looks like the NIC has died << then you replaced it? because a recovery does not repair hardware
