Repair does a re install of the OS

Rescue puts you in single user mode so that you can manually repair things.

Neither effects any other OS you may have installed.

Did you mean you are not able to access the Windows partition or else that you are not able to boot into windows OS ?
If you are not able to boot into Windows , Could you please give us an history about what were the changes that you have made to your system?
What is the Boot loader that you have installed in your system ? Is it Grub ?

If you are not able to access the Windows Partition . You need to login as normal user and run either of the commands
'sudo fdisk -l ' or
login in as root 'su -' (U will be prompted for the root password)
in the root shell type 'fdisk -l'
Post the results

We need to know about the partitions on your drive. So please report the results of

type

su
then the root password at the prompt
note the password does not echo to the screen.

fdisk -l


Also note that Linux is case sensitive so SU is not the same as su
