BSOD and startup failure help please

[freudenstachel]

i dont really know where to put this thread since i dont know the cause of the problem, but since my os is vista, i decided to put it here.

my laptop (toshiba satellite l310) suddenly hang and then i shut it off by pressing the power button.
i restarted but it wont get past the "Windows is loading screen".
i tried waiting for a long time but it still wont work.
then, it went into startup repair but the repair said that it cannot find any problems.
then, it still wont open.
the startup repair suggested system restore but it cannot go through with it for some reason. i opened the repair and diagnostic log and this is what it says:

Session Details
System Disk = \Device\Harddisk0
Windows Directory = C:\Windows
AutoChk Run = 0
Number of root causes = 1

*i dragged down to the cause of the problem since the other things written just says the test is complete*

Root Cause Found:
Startup Repair has tried several times but still cannot determine the cause of the problem.


*Further Down is this*

Root Cause Found:
Unspecified changed to system configuration might have caused the problem

Repair Action: System Restore
Result: Error Code = 0x490
Time Taken = 0ms

*Another one is this*

Root Cause Found:
System Volume one disk is corrupt

Repair Action: File System repair (chkdsk)
Result: Completed Successfully Error code = 0x0
Time Taken = 183629ms




*the repair log is this*

*i tried running system restoreagain from the cd but it returns this:*

System restore failed due to an unspecified error
the system cannot find the file specified (0x80070002)


*i also got a blue screen saying "Fatal System error something 0xc000003a"*
iwasnt able to write it all down since it suddenly went off.

UPDATE:

i tried going to safe mode but it hanged and suddenly had a blue screen.
chkdsk and memtest shows no problems.

the blue scree says:

A process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated
0x000000f4 (0x00000003, 0x8663ed90, 0x8663eedc, 0x82626710)

another one i got says:

STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}
The session manager failed to create protected prefixes system terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc000003a (0x00000000 0x00000000)
The system has been shut down.

now, i constantly get this blue screen error. please help.

Hi

Do you have your original Windows Vista CD still?

Try the info HERE and more so to start with if you can hit F8 and then choose "last known good"

But an inplace repair maybe in order.

i dont think i have the vista cd. i only have the recovery disk. is that the same?

regarding the link, it says that the article is different than my version of windows. would it work in vista?

the last known good configuration and everything in the F8 menu does not work.i tried them for the whole day.

system restore also says that the files are missing. it seems deleted.

thanks for the reply!
