MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
AMD Pheonom 9350e Quad-Core Processor
4.0GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 220
Problem:
Started up the computer yesterday morning, Aero theme unavailable resulting in Classic Theme being default one. Desktop Window Manager Session Module not started on Services, neither is dwm.exe process in Task Manager. Basically I'm in over my head. Thought it was an easy fix but on further look, more issues have arose.
"Desktop window Manager Session Manager- Module missing or moved. System Error 126"
Aero Troubleshoot- no problems
Microsoft Fix It- Troubleshooting cannot continue because an error has occured
Tried to force enable Aero
• UseMachineCheck with Value 0
• Blur with Value 0
• Animations with Value 0
Ran the CMD- Net Stop uxsms
• "The Desktop Window Manager Session Manager Service is not stared
• More Help- NET HELPMSG 3521
• The *** service is not started"
Ran the CMD- Net Start uxsms
• The Desktop Window Manager Session Manager is Starting
• The Desktop Window Manager Session could not be started
• A system error has occured.
• System Error 126 has occured.
• The specified module could not be found.
Ran the CMD -sfc /scannow
• "Window Resource Protection could not start the repair service "
Then I tried to do a System Restore, Once logged back in
• "System Restore Failure - Windows Error 0x80070571"
Restarted the system.
On start up
• Windows Updates Reverting Changes back -Window Error 80080005
Used the Fix Problems with Windows Update tool:

"One or more Windows Update Components are configured incorrectly"
Re-ran Windows Update:

• System Event Notifcation Service service Terminated- System cannot find the file.
• File System on Structure on the disk is corrupt/unusable
• Run ChkDsk utility on the Volume SYSTEM and C:
• WMI Diag.exe
• WMI Enumeration Error
On Device and Printers-
• Desktop Computer Icon e.g. Name-PC, Status is "Needs Troubleshooting"
• Troubleshooting shows no problems

• NIVIDIA nForce Networking Controller
• Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface
• WAN Miniport (IKEv2) (IP) (IPv6) (L2TP) (Network Monitor) (PPPOE) (PPTP) (SSTP)
All show Device Status- "This Device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device (Code 31)"
I had originally did a ChkDsk- I was out of the room when it completed and it was on the User Log-in Screen with the Windows 7 theme still active
Tried:
• New user to see if Profile was corrupt- New user having the same issue
• Re-ran system assessment- rating being 5 (usual score)
• Though Processor & installed memory showing "unavailable"
• Norton Scan- No viruses/trojans or etc. Had for 3-4 years. No problems
• NVIDIA driver not updating, rolled back the driver and re-updated. Successful.
• Not Graphics issue. Running all gaming software to usual standard.
And tried right-clicking desktop and going through Personalisation, Aero themed are Gray/unavailable
Cheers for any responses!
