Have you tried BootRec.exe /fixmbr and BootRec.exe /fixboot as well? Performing one or both of those before /RebuildBcd might help.
Didn't image your hard drive first, I take it? Hopefully you at least backed up your data before messing with the partitions... otherwise we may have a handful of chores ahead to recover your data if we can't get Windows to boot. If you have another computer handy with an extra connector for your tanked HDD that will make data recovery easier, otherwise you'll need an external HDD or a bunch of flash drives, depending on how much data you will need saved.
Yes, that did not work either. I've resolved the issue by connecting my hard drive as a slave to another machine and copying the data I wish to keep over to that computer's hard drive, which I will transfer back once I have completed a re-install of Windows 7.
Just out of curiosity: the drive was naturally readable by Windows as a slave in the second computer? Meaning the partition showed in My Computer and everything?
