Annoying boot loop

[natebank]

Hello, I have a pc that goes through a boot loop at the windows loading screen. I have windows 7 loaded on the drive and it is functional in a different tower, as have other hard drives i've toyed with in the past. Its an msi 7312 motherboard. I ran the windows memory diagnostic in advanced and the pc reset around 93% (it hadn't shown any errors yet). i am able to run puppy linux from the dvd drive. I can't boot from a usb stick to try to flash the bios (is that what i should even do?) any help at all would be awesome! thanks

Do you have the Windows 7 installation disk? If so, use that to try and run startup repair. The boot loop is often caused by errors in the bootmgr/boot sector. The repair disk can either fix these, or if you have it set up, you can use system restore.
