PC won't start after installing Avast 7
« on: November 24, 2012, 02:21:48 PM »
Installed on laptop with no problem but on house PC ...oh dear.   Installed yesterday and went to bed leaving a full scan in progress.  Came down this morning and was prompted to re-start which I did.  But it won't re-start and tells me there is a problem with Windows and I should try the original set-up disc (XP)R.and press   I have tried that but nothing changes.   Anyone got any suggestions?  I'm useless at this .....

thanks.
