Looks like black screen of death.
1. Restart machine & tap F8 AS IT IS BOOTING.
2. ON OPTIONS MENU SELECT LAST KNOWN CONFIGURATION OR GO TO SAFE MODE
3. GO TO SYSTEM RESTORE
4. GO TO EARLIER RESTORE POINT
5. REBOOT.
Any previous antivirus before avast was on the computer? if you had then these need to be removed before using avast. With there removal tools ie MACAFEES & SYMANTEC/NORTONS ETC
