do you have a copy of windows that you could use? you could do a "repair windows" option once you boot with that, backup everything important, then reformat (for the sake of it not happening again).

once you repair the installation, burn everyone you don't want to lose to a cd's/dvd's, then reformat and reinstall everything.

boot the laptop from your windows disc. select you will find a series of options, including "repair windows installation." once that is done, you can boot windows back up like normal.

now, for safety's sake, so that you don't lose anything or risk this again (as easily), back up any data you don't want to lose, then reformat the laptop with the previously mentioned windows disc. reinstall your applications, games, data, etc, and you're done.

hi, what model of toshiba laptop do you have? There is a problem with overheating, shutting down, etc with the Satellite A70/A75 and M35/38? .. there is a civil lawsuit going on about this.

I have the A75 and have the motherboard replaced 5 times and the top panel replaced once ... toshiba just wants to keep 'fixing' it not replace it with a good laptop that won't have problems.

if you are still under warranty get it into the shop and have it looked at.
