Go into your BIOS and switch SATA mode from AHCI to Compatibility. I did this on a Toshiba and Windows started normally again. I am going to install the latest Service Pack (SP2, at the time of writing) and switch it back. I will re-post my final results then.
Well... SP2 is already installed. After two successful reboots into Windows the problem returned and I am back at square one. Changing SATA mode in the BIOS does nothing now. Neither setting works now. I did, however, get an error log from the Windows Startup Repair utility this time. Posted below in case it helps anyone.

It seems to definately point to a driver problem. Now I just have to find which one
