You may want to try using an ISO disk.
Did you by any chance create a system recovery disk.

Can you re-boot and get to the command prompt?

if you by "can you re-boot anf get to the command promt?" mean starting it in safemode whit commandpromt, then it get the same aswRvrt.sys message as in normal safemode and safemode whit network.

we dont have a recovery disk or ISO disk if that is the same as an installation disk for windows 7

UPDATA i played a little around and got the the sceen whits is attached
Startup Repair - tried
System restore - Tried to the one point show

 is it this commandpromt you ask for?

Download the following three programmes to your desktop :
 
 
1.  Rufus 
 
For 64bit systems  
2. Windows 7 64bit RC  (I will PM the download link for this )
3. Farbar Recovery Scan Tool x64 
 
 
Insert the USB stick Then run Rufus
 
Select the ISO file on the desktop via the ISO icon. 
 
Press Start Burn

Then copy FRST to the same USB   
 
   
 
 
 
Insert the USB into the sick computer and start the computer.  First ensuring that the system is set to boot from USB 
Note: If you are not sure how to do that follow the instructions Here
 
Windows 7 and Vista screenshots 

When you reboot you will  see this.
 Click repair my computer  
 
 
Select your operating system  
 
 
Select Command prompt 
 
 
At the command prompt type the following  :
 
notepad and press Enter. 
The notepad opens. Under File menu select Open. 
Select "Computer" and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad. 
In the command window type e:\frst64.exe  or  e:\frst.exe dependant on system
 and press Enter 
Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive. 
The tool will start to run. 
When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.

It will make a log (FRST.txt) on the flash drive. Please copy and paste it to your reply.

This fixlist will now disable Avast.  Did you download any windows updates at the same time ?

Hi Again 

i tryed to run the old fixlist once again, and after that i tried a normal Windows repair, just as doing some thing in the meantime to you next step respond. but the windows repair said i have made i work and restartet and it worked so now i can use it again tryed restart it once again to se if it would start again, and no problem anymore it seem.

to anwser your question about windows update, then there might have been one i cant remember if it were that day or the other but i think there were and update before i coudent start it.

would you say i should uninstal avast tottaly and then reinstal it or is this not nessacery?

[essexboy]

No it is not essential to do anything with Avast, that was my last resort option 

Glad you are back up and running

Curious, you said you ran "old" fixlist....you mean you re-ran the first (reply #7) one Essexboy posted above again ?......then did Windows Repair and it then booted ?  In other words.....you did not run second fixlist (Reply #9) he posted at all ?
Just trying to understand for future people with possible same issue.

[REDACTED]

Yep, first ran the fixlist from #7 and restartet the PC nothing happend same failure, tried run the same fixlist from #7 and them do a windows repair and it work.

Just as bonus. i had tryed restart it as an earlier point but fail. Also tried a Windows repair whitout any ting happend before making a post in this forum.
