Stuck at aswRvrt.sys when trying to boot in safe mode.

Man no problem, if there's anything else I can do from my side to help you I will gladly do it. This is my 6 month old gaming computer that I built so I was devastated when all this happened, you are a life saver!

Gonna restart and hook up the other drives now and see if all is well. Then reinstalling avast.

[essexboy]

I would recommend installing Avast prior to replacing the other drives to ensure that it goes on the correct drive.  It should do but better safe than sorry

[jlems85]

Ok will do.

Do you know what exactly caused the problem? Something I could do in the future to prevent this?

[jlems85]

So I shutdown the computer, reconnected the hard drives and booted up and got stuck in the windows screen again. I disconnected the HDD (which is the oldest drive) and booted up again and same problems. I disconnected the other SSD and booted up again and it started up perfectly. Do you know what's going on? Maybe it is the boot order?

[essexboy]

On the other SSD is there any important data ? As there is a possibility that the second SSD also has a reserved partition and that is causing confusion.  The reserved partition dictates the master drive (Boot drive)

[jlems85]

No I don't have important data on there, it's a drive just for games. But I would like to keep them cause my internet is pretty slow and downloaded those games to forever lol.  But if nothing can be done I know I will probably have to format and that's ok.

Just another tidbit of info: When I connect the other SSD while the comp is on, under device manager in disk drives when I connect the SSD, the SSD doesn't show up as "samsung bla bla bla" it only shows up as "disk drive". When I disconnect the SSD it goes away, so the comp is recognizing it somewhat. When I reboot and go into bios, it doesn't show up there.

Thanks again.

Does the motherboard have the ability to run 2 SSD's

[jlems85]

I don't know for sure (I didn't even know this was a concern) but it has been running them fine for about 3 months.

This is the mobo I have.

thanks.

[essexboy]

Could you copy the games from the second SSD to the hardrive, reformat the SSD and then copy them back ?  Or are they actually installed on that drive

[jlems85]

I don't think so since I can't access the SSD...is there some way that I could?

And even if I could, I don't think I can do that since they are installed and I don't think they would just copy over to the other hard drive. Also, I have about 36 gigs left on my primary drive cause windows and battlefield 4 lol.

[jlems85]

Just another bit of info.

I plugged in the HDD and booted up the comp and it worked fine. So you are correct, it is the SSD .

[essexboy]

OK I will have another rummage around, although it may actually be a problem with the SSD.  I have very little knowledge of them at the moment 

[jlems85]

Thanks for the help! If you are unable to find anything, would you have any suggestions of where I can go for help with this current issue.

Thanks once again for being awesome.

[essexboy]

The driver causing the crash is iomap64.sys   I am checking that out at the moment

[jlems85]

OK cool! Thanks Essex.
