for the past two weeks, my computer won't start up. Windows repair cannot fix it. It lists the problem as a root cause: bug check a. parameters 0x0, 0x2, 0x0, 0xfffff80003093cd4. When I decline system resore, the computer boots and runs fine. I'd like not to run windows fix it everytime I try to start up.

Install a Windows 7 OS DVD and from the installation screen try the "Repair" option (in the bottom left on my copy).

It's also possible you have a virus so ...
Download TDSSKiller and RKill from our Freeware DB. If you do not have an anti-virus then download, install, and allow to update Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM). Then reboot your system into safe mode without networking (Reboot and, when it says "Starting Windows," Press F8; If you get a message asking continue in safe mode or perform a system restore, choose continue in safe mode). Now run TDSSKiller and after that run RKill and after that run a full virus scan. The first two will take maybe 5 minutes each but a full virus scan can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours depending on your hard drive size and number of files.

Booting in safe mode makes sure only minimal services/programs are started. TDSSKiller is designed specifically to look for rootkits. RKill is designed to stop the stealthing programs that hide/protect/regenerate some nasty viruses. Running these first will help ensure your A/V has the absolute best chance of cleaning up infected files.


Or it could be a hardware problem such as your hard drive going bad.

Or it may just be bad drivers, be sure to update from the Toshiba website and from the graphics card manufacturer (AMD or NVidia)

Thanks for the response. I tried all the fixes you recommended but no problems were found.
