Help?!

Hoping someone here has a clue whats happening as I have never come across this before. I built an AMD piledriver (maybe but its amd intergrated anyways) pc with windows 7 on it for my Dad. Today he shows me this-
Turn on pc
black screen with loads of text and a 30 second countdown at the bottom
countdown ends
same again with another countdown and press any key
option to insert repair disk,press cmd and enter a line of code around 20 characters long.

Now I think its a corrupted windows or ssd failure as Im sure I saw something like chkdsk in the text. Was going to reinstall windows after I remove the ssd and format it but would like to know if anyone has any thoughts or have encountered anything similar?

Im going to have a go tomorrow sticking it in mine. I think its a corsair ssd and its about 9 month old

Right...Its a sammy evo 240gb and Ive stuck it into the port on my corsair 650d to run checks on it. Chkdsk reports no bad sectors but says windows has made corrections to the file system. All data is fully accessible and I was able to remove photos and what not before the scan. Ive re-seated the sata cables and power cables so Im going to finish this coffee before heading back to my dads to plug it in and see what happens. Got the windows disk anyways just incase
