Hello,
I have a Toshiba Satellite A135-S2426.
1. I get the Media Test Failure, check cable message in the boot screen
2. The computer gives me a "Launch Startup Repair", when I do this option, i run the test, but a message comes up saying "problem cannot be fixed automatically". When I finish, the screen goes to the loading screen, quickly flashes blue, and the computer restarts. I also have a "start windows automatically" option, but the same thin happens in the load screen.

this problem recently came up Feb 10. Help Would Greatly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance..

Yes
I had nothing attached to the laptop. but the same thing happened. As for the blue screen, yes it has a message on it, but it flashes for a split second. Too fast to see anything written on it

Probably a hardware failure with the hard disk or motherboard. If a replacement hard drive doesn't fix it you will need to return the laptop to the manufacturer for servicing.

Good Luck
