I am asking for help,please
I am writhing this on a 2nd computer,as the crashed comp cannot fct.I read past files re this bug and they required loading,running of files as well as sending log files of procedures
I -at this level, dont know how do do that As the computer does not boot,so I cannot load,run,copy
I tried to fix this with EaseUSTodo vers 6.5 as I have a “system backup” on an external HD
ALAS how do you boot,fix a booting problem from an external file when you cannot boot Windows?:>
I am looking for a fix without the need for a fresh windows reinstall
afraid to loose some file etc,also takes days to find and load all drivers,updates etc
Have not seen a slipstream for W7 yet
So here the guts:
running W7 64
When pushing F8 I get the various Safe Mode choices" none leading to a W load
with command prompt at least I get some details:
it runs loading drivers,last one aswRvrt.sys and hangs for good.this is a AVAST fie I read
how do I proceed best?
many thnx up front for a hopefully worked out scheme by now
Insert the USB into the sick computer and start the computer. First ensuring that the system is set to boot from USB
Note: If you are not sure how to do that follow the instructions Here

The notepad opens. Under File menu select Open.
Select “Computer” and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad.
In the command window type e:\frst64.exe or e:\frst.exe dependant on system
and press Enter Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive.
The tool will start to run.

thank you for summarizing what hopefully works to get the puter back
Lots of material to digest for me
If I may though question an issue that surprises me:
downloading the rc file from your PM
I get 2 programs that are questionable Malware or viruses,and another 4 viruses
all now sitting in quarantine
and of course inacessible
sorry for the delay in answer, been out of town
I used /have loaded Avira virus prg on this 2nd computer
The :viruses" were ADWAR type, so apparenty no true viruses but flagged ,ended up deleted from the disk
will now start the recommended FARBAR procedure
