BSOD After Restarting From Download Initial Updates
I'm really hoping someone can help me with this issue. The laptop is actually my girlfriends, it is a Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5934. The computer itself is attached to an external Samsung monitor as it is used at her desk much like a desktop. It originally came with Windows Vista but last October she purchased the digital copy of Windows 8 so it has been running on that OS just fine. However, one of her classes this semester requires that she has Windows 7 installed. (It is an IT class.)
Luckily for her, I had an unused license that I gladly let her have and we formatted the drive and installed it like you normally would. Something weird did occur during the installation process when it is was trying to get to the blue colored "installing now" screen. It blue-screened and restarted. It did this twice very fast so I was unable to catch it. I nearly gave up on trying to install it and went to my room to seek assistance when my girlfriend called out from the living room for me to hurry before it crashes. I run in and its installing. Everything seems normal and functional.
We begin the updating process and after getting only the IMPORTANT updates, of which there were around 105, the computer asked to be restarted. She restarted it. Upon trying to boot back into Windows it flashed with a bizarre error screen and then demands for Start up Repair to be run. This was allowed to run at which point it found nothing bizarre. I am now unable to make it past this point as the same screen always occurs. I took a few shots of the various feedback given from the machine - I would give more, but I can't get into Windows 7. This upsets me because she needs it in order to pursue her career. Any help will be appreciated beyond measures.
Attached are the screens I took with my phone:
