Could you now run startup repair at least 3 times please, rebooting between each we need to regenerate the boot cache and this should do it

Ugh -- I must have really messed up my computer this time. It is still restarting at the Windows Logo screen.

It appears that the boot cache generator at C:\Windows\System32\catroot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE} is badly broken, in which case the only alternative is to re-install windows.  Do you have a disc image ?  If not you will have to back up your data using something like the reatogo desktop

Ok, I can get at the files to backup all my important documents. I was kind of expecting this. Thank you very much for all of your assistance!

Hello, I am sorry but how to launch these programs when computer does not even boot in safe mode ?

Thank you for your help and I will open a new thread as requested when I will know how to check my computer.





Please go to https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0 and follow the directions for attaching the other logs needed:

- MBAM
- aswMBR.exe

After doing this, do not attempt to make any changes to your machine (this includes trying to fix it).  After you have posted your logs, someone will be along to review them.  Thank you.

Wondering the same things, I consistently see mention of saving something to the desktop,. when the title clearly indicates that we can not boot into windows either regular or safe mode, and safe mode stopping at the aswrvrt.sys file
