Having exactly the same problem in Win7. Tried running in safe Mode and any other combinaton but no luck. Gets as far as loading avgbidshx.sys and then reboots.
All your llinks above assume that you can boot into Windows. I can't!
No use telling me to remove AVG because the PC DOESN'T BOOT!!! I can however access the drive from another PC. I've tried renaming the AVG folder but it's loading the files from C:\windows\system32\drivers. So I removed the AVG files from the drivers folder - AND it still finds them???
So now I have a brick, courtesy of AVG.
So how do I manually remove AVG from the harddisk - including the registry, and any drivers that it's managed to scattered around.
I had this same problem and was able to fix it without reinstalling windows. To boot up around the error, click on F8 during that initial message and click disable signature verification (7). It should boot normally. I did a full scan and found a virus which I removed. Removing it didn't fix the problem but an uninstall and reinstall of AVG did. A 'repair' of AVG did not fix the problem.
I had to log in just to say how bad this thing is, have to reset my pc , will never use this again, and will NOT forget to cancel the useless membership . Have a nice day . Really try not to fucking swear rn
Imagine claiming to be a reputable anti-virus provider yet continuously getting told about a problem your answer is always "Uninstall and reinstall" or "It's not our product."
I just did a complete reimage on my computer, taking things step by step, and low and behold AVG Internet Security is what is causing an issue on boot up. Y'alls product is broken and your failure to fix the problem after at least five years of versions is a terrible business practice. I switched over from Avast because of these issues, only to find that the reason both these programs have these issues is that they are the same program under different names run by the same bullshit company.
Hello i have this same problem my computer was working smoothly then i search for avg and install it after restarting my pc wont start up there is a blink of blue screen then goes to option of startup repair or start windows normally but either two works. Syatem recovery error also!!

My PC won't start after AVG update and auto restart.

RECOVERY
The operating system couldn't be loaded because the digital signature of a file couldn't be verified.
File\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\avgmfx64.sys
Error code: 0xc0000428
You'll need to use recovery tools. If you don't have any installation media (like a disc or USB device), contact your PC administrator or PC/Device manufacturer"
