I'm on the laptop. Unfortunately that last SFCFix bricked the computer. Started with the BSOD and when I tried to restart with the Windows 7 installation CD there was a keyboard failure message so I could not boot from the CD. Hopefully I can get it restored from the image and be back up by tomorrow.
