I'm sorry, the system can't find the source to the wim, and I tried to fix it, but I can't understand what should I do, because the explanation that microsoft has is very confusing. I think that without to fix that we could not repair anything. I'll appreciate your help doing that. I have a recovery section in my hard drive under the letter D:, but I don't know how to use it. One time I tried, and received an error saying that the source must be in an active disk. The problem, I think, is that this partition was done by HP when configured the computer and it's not active. Following the instructions from Microsoft, I tried now to open the group policy, and it's not found by the explorer search. If you give me the instructions step by step, I will do it. Thanks.
 
You don't have to find the source to the wim. You are correct that the message is confusing but don't worry, I'll walk you through it. It's just telling us that one or more files are missing which is what we will fix.

Please do the following.

SFC Scan
1. Right-click on the Start
w8start.png
button and select Command Prompt (Admin)
2. When command prompt opens, Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Right-click > Paste) the following command into it, then press Enter
sfc /scannow

3. Once it finishes, copy and paste the following into the command-prompt window and press Enter.
copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"

4. Once this has completed please go to your Desktop and you will find CBS.txt => Please upload CBS.txt to this thread

I don't really know what happens with this PC. Just now it freeze completely, the mmc stop responding, and I had to restart it by the button because the Task Manager and the mouse stopped responding. Now I can't paste anything, because the browser stop responding. I switched to IE thinking that the problem was with Firefox, but here also happened. I will try once again:

Actually, the computer is reacting a little faster. However, windows continue opening already freeze and after a few seconds, start working. Also the mouse has issues with the right click. Firefox stop working when I make a right click, or try to paste something and I have to restart it. Do I works the mouse with 2 drivers? I deleted the second one because was changing the cursor back every time I restart the computer, and did nothing when I disabled. Should I install it back?
