Yea i guess so ......
the point is with all the info and knowledge that is on the net about this there is no excuse for not doing it.
The big mail vendors like microsoft and Google give away cloud storage for free with a account, then there is dropbox and similar or just a USB stick, so you should have a backup plan just in case

@Pondus I agree, but that isn't helping me getting this thing to boot.
@Asyn thanks anyway, but not much use because it won't load windows
Anyone know how to get his thing to boot or of a way I delete the offending file before windows loads?

This same problem has happened on my Mum's laptop. I had to do a system restore for her and it looks like the problem could be related to a recent windows update KB 2949927.

Is it actually stuck on aswrvrt.sys or, is that the last file it was able to verify
before getting stuck on the next file ???
