Doesn't sound like you've left yourself many options. Running registry
repair tools probably made things worse, not better. You need to restore a
registry backup, and in Vista this is only done through the use of System
Restore.
The blackout probably is the cause, not the uninstall routine, the sudden
loss of power during a system critical event can cause all sorts of damage
to system files. This is why it is highly recommended that systems be placed
on a UPS with battery backup to allow for a controlled shutdown when power
goes out.
Your only solution at this point may be to start with a clean installation.
