I've found that if it isn't possible to fix the disk via the recovery console that, if possible, you can login to Safe Mode with Command Prompt then you can try to run 'chkdsk /r' from there. It gives you a message about not being able to get exclusive access, so choose 'y' to schedule then restart the machine. On next boot 'chkdsk' pre-empts Windows in access to the HDD and can sometimes fix the issues. I know it sounds quirky, but I've had this work on a machine which wasn't able to boot any other way.
