hi,
use the Windows Installation CD to repair your windows.
use the Windows Installation CD to repair your windows.
I have a Toshiba Satellite with Win7 on it. When you made the 3 DVDs it should have automatically put the option in for restoring.
When you start up, you should have the DVD labeled something similar to "Toshiba Recovery Disc 1" (this is NOT the apps and drivers disc) in the drive, and it will boot to a menu with 2 options. The first being Toshiba Factory Restore (you don't have to do this for this problem), the 2nd is something having to do with the Vista/7 restore tools.
SELECT THIS OPTION.
It will bring you to another menu with keyboard preference - select the keyboard appropriate to you, and click next. The next menu either will be a bunch of options, or the startup and repair wizard will start - with either one, it's the top-most option on the list. If it's the previous menu, select Startup Repair, and it will bring you to the same place..
WALA! The startup and repair wizard! lol This will walk you through the steps to use it to fix ALMOST any startup problems (some are too complicated to talk about simply). If it's a simple fix, it will almost immediately come up with an option to 'repair and restart' - I think it's kind of obvious what to select as the other one says 'cancel'. If that's the case, it should almost immediately reboot once you press that button, and after restarting, what appears back in your F8 menu? You guessed it, your beloved (and mine) "Repair My Computer" option! If, however, it starts scanning after you hit that button (repair and reboot), and seems like it's taking a while, it may or may not fix it. It's kind of hit or miss at that point, and I never quite understood why, but believe me, LET IT FINISH! Go watch a movie, or fix lunch, or something, as this WILL take a WHILE.. BUT let it finish, because more often than not, it will hit, and fix whatever prevented your computer from booting, and more often than not, also put that option back in the F8 menu.
Hope that helps!
