Win7 nor Win7 repair disc will not boot, keep getting 'startup repair'

Not a silly question with me.. I checked the settings and HDD is back in space 1 to boot first... when it restarts, I'm not hitting any keys, I will try 'startup repair' now... I'll let you know...

Good luck!

Okay... finally into 'DiskPart' command... I saw a note that says you should not have more than 1 partition 'active'. Which should be 'active', "Recovery" or "Primary"?

Primary should be active.

ok ty, I put primary as active... ran setup repair again, 'no problems detected', took out repair disk, changed Boot settings back to HDD first... and shut down/restart... and 'system recovery options' comes back up again.... eyeyeye.... I thought I was getting somewhere but back at this screen...?

After 11 1/2 hours today, and 3 hours yesterday and still not pulling up my windows or desktop... I did the 'Toshiba Recovery Wizard' which set my comp back to "out of box state", welll.. upon restart I now rcv error that "Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem: 1. insert windows installation disc & restart... etc" Then says: "Status: 0xc000000e Info: The boot selection failed because a required devise is inaccessible." I do not have an 'installation disc' on the 'repair disc' that I downloaded from web.

Do you (or anyone else) have any insight on this as well?? Thank you again for all your help!

What Windows 7 version do you have? Windows 7 Home Premium 32 - Bit?

I would Check the hard drive with the manufacturer's diagnostic tools.

@Writhziden, Yes, I have Windows 7 Home Prem, I have the product key but not a disc (as it came with my computer). Do you know if there is a way to re-load it w/ this info? @Theog, I did not make any recovery disks :-(

You can do a clean install of Windows 7 if you have access to a DVD burner. I would suggest that you speak with Toshiba about getting recovery discs, first, though. If after you speak with them you want to do a clean install, I can help you.
