Before you reinstall Windows 7, consider using the Boot-Repair method. You could actually regain your setup.

I’m here again with the installation DVD. I was planning to attempt the boot repair. You recommended it.

Hey, I noticed you weren't around for your comment. Usually these CAD tools work backward, but there seems to be an issue with optimization or something similar. When I attempted to set up the 32-bit SolidWorks on Windows 7, it clearly stated incompatibility with 64-bit systems. However, installing the same version on a 64-bit OS went smoothly without any problems.

Well, the process doesn't function as expected. After selecting the date, time, or keyboard input, I land on the screen offering a fresh install or repair option. I picked repair, and it looked for existing Windows versions. It only found Windows 7 64-bit, which makes sense since that's the one installed. When I tried recovery tools, it warned me that the version of System Recovery Options isn't compatible with the current Windows version I'm attempting to fix. It suggested using a recovery disc that matches this specific Windows release. The odd part is that I'm using the same DVD I originally used to install the operating system.

Sure, it sounds like you're stuck in the recovery menu. Try selecting "Startup Repair" as a potential solution.

This indicates a system reset is needed. Repairing the boot process doesn't necessitate installing Linux. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair

I used the method from my previous post to enter the CMD, but the system restoration failed repeatedly—clicking cancel twice led me back to the same screen due to compatibility problems. Eventually, after following the steps provided at the link, I was able to open CMD successfully and completed the master boot record restoration without issues. Now Windows 7 is running smoothly.
