Computer does not boot upThe problem maybe the RAM, it is faulty or just needsreseating to make proper electrical contact. Reseat the RAM and then boot up your laptop. If it still does not boot up thenremove the RAM module/s and take them to your friendly computer repair shop andget them to test the RAM for you.Just like you sometimes need a mechanic to repair your car,sometimes you do need a technician to diagnose and identify the fault or faultson your computer. Not only does a good service technican have the experience todeal with this type of problem, they also have the equipment that allows themto look at things the average computer user can't see, and he has a collectionof replacement parts that can be used to quickly test individual components onyour computer.
The media test failure could indicate a failed hard drive. You can order one for cheap on newegg.com or pick one up at bestbuy for under $50
You would need a 2.5" sata hard drive. Comment if you need help installing it.
You will want to contact toshiba and order the recovery media. There is no way to just download it unfortunately.

Tell them you need to order "recovery discs" and they will probably ask for the serial number.
I've seen the recovery media run from $16-80 depending on manufacturer.
Comment if you need additional assistance.
