Last day i tried to help my sister by making her pc faster so i started an Avast! scan and i ask me to update it but some thing went wrong and i just did a scan using the older version. today when i triede to start it the PC i went stok just after the Windows loading logo in black screen i tried restart and it did’t help, also triede in safemode but i frezze at “aswRvrt.sys” for a couple of secoonds and vent to bluescreen. i also triede to start i in last working condition but this did’t help either.
if you by “can you re-boot anf get to the command promt?” mean starting it in safemode whit commandpromt, then it get the same aswRvrt.sys message as in normal safemode and safemode whit network.
