I think everybody knows that with XP you could perform a repair install from 
the boot cd
This exactly what you cannot do with windows 7. A repair install (upgrade) 
REQUIRES YOU HAVE A BOOTABLE SYSTEM

  Do you want to upgrade, or do you want to reinstall?

  You asked for reinstall.  None of the results found with the above

the first match is for Microsoft's procedure that explains exactly
what you originally asked for.  Have you tired them?
