Not booting with boot scan enabled

[bh68]

Hopefull someone will be able to help. I have just installed Avast! free and ran scan successfull. I enabled boot scan afterwards. A little while later m computer (Windows went down with a blue screen. With first reboot, boot scan was started but PC went down a few seconds later. Now it does not start at all, I hear the fan for 1 second, then it turns of again. No chance to boot fromm an other device. Is there an option to disable boot scan directl on the hard drive? I can't do anthing in the system, since it is not starting. So only option seems to connect hard drive to a different PC and manipulate some settings in this way. Is there an wa to do so?

Please advice!
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the update.

I know this wouldn't have helped your situation, but it may help other people that can't get Windows 7 to boot.
