    Nope, I have no idea what couldve caused this. Would UNIcode letters do this kind of thing? Because I did save a document with some of them.
    Do you have a Windows 7 installation cd or Repair cd? If so, try running system restore from there. Also, try different restore points. Don't try the same restore point again and again if it doesn't work.

    Here's what I want you to do. I want you to back up ALL of the data in the users folder. That is C:\Users Since your pc can't boot into Windows 7, I want you to download Ubuntu and burn it to a disc: Download | Ubuntu
    After you burn it to a disc, I want you to boot off of the Ubuntu disc. Don't do anything to Ubuntu until you come up to the screen where you can either try Ubuntu or install Ubuntu. Select Try Ubuntu. Once Ubuntu loads up, you should see your c: drive on the desktop. It won't be called c, though. Double click on the drive. Now, connect an external hard drive. Right-click on your users folder on your main hard drive and click copy. Now, paste it into your external hard drive. once you have copied your users folder, reboot your pc. There will be a power icon in the bar at the top right of your screen. You can click on that and choose too reboot. Now, start your pc and tap f8 to get to the Windows advanced options menu. Select repair your computer. Now, run that Toshiba program and tell it to restore your computer to factory defaults.
