Is the windows folder visible when you open the drive ?  If so select that folder

essex, i have been following all of your stuff in this post. heres my problem, my FRST file says that the hive is missing, and shows NOTHING in the text file as far as scanned stuff, just empty file except for where it says all the startup files are missing, winlogon.exe etc etc.... now when i boot with the OTLPE, when i try following your directions, c: shows up but there are NO folders or anything in it and I therefore can not scan it....what are your suggestions?

If neither OTLPE nor FRST can see the drive/folders then I would suspect that the hard drive has failed

Hi!

I seem to have the same problem. Windows won't boot on my pc, not in any modes. I'm working from my girlfriend's Mac now, which doesn't run Rufus. I would like to send you an FRST file or something similar. What can I do?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Does the mac have the ability to burn an ISO file to a CD and make it bootable

Also is this 32 or 64bit

Windows 7 64 bit. There is a burner on the Mac, but I don't know if it can write ISO images. It only says CD R etc. Also I don't have any burnable discs handy. Sorry for the bother.

Maybe tomorrow. If not, is there something else we could try?

Problem solved. My pc works. The solution was very simple. I went into the BIOS and changed the SATA configuration from IDE to AHDI. Don't know why it was changed in the first place. Could Avast have done it?

Avast does not touch the BIOS did you get some windows updates prior to the failure ?

Hello Essex, I seem to have the same problem as the above users (while trying to boot screen goes black post windows login screen), no access to my desktop except through command prompt safe mode, which for some reason is extremely slow.

Have also gotten "User Profile Service Failed" while trying to logon in Safe Mode.

64 bit Windows 7 with avast!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best,
Cocheck

Same problem here, had to re-install windows as this was the only solution.
I will not reccomend avast to anyone.
My computer crashed because of AVAST and now i have to start all over again with my setting up my PC
Also lost a lot of data because of this!
