Is your warranty still valid?? If so take advantage of it and let Toshiba handle the problems. As for your hard drive a 250G drive formatted in Windows works out to 232.5G of space. Rough rule of thumb is to take the manufactures size and multiply it by 93%. Your 231G is fairly close to what I calculated.

If didn't get a recovery cd, you will have to make one from the start menu (create recovery) will need 1 or 2 dvds, once burned, then boot from disc and will be able to format then reinstall.
