insider preview 17074 not working
There are issues w/nVidia drivers (I have Ti1050 OC) in terms of how they load in Windows 10 RS3/4 Builds---after you install latest nVidia driver (most of you 64-bit, I bet). 'disable' driver in 'devices' so you get a 22 code....re-boot machine, go back into Windows but do not 'enable' card---power off, unplug power, press start button machine so power is not still there, and is used....then, plug back in power supply, re-boot, 'enable' card, and you should be good.
If you cannot get in latest Insider build, back-door it with a dual-boot (comes in handy) and use Unlocker via other Windows-based OS (on different partition) to delete the nVidia .inf file in windows/system32/driverstore/respository...the files are 'protected' but Unlocker will allow you to delete /inf...then re-boot, and then re-install nVidia driver but 'disable' it, and go thru above....took me a bit to nail this one...hope it helps some of you.
I don't have secure boot as an option.
not sure what else to do now - this is the third update since 17035 that does not work. My laptop upgrade fine which only adds to the frustration!
I've tried all suggestions and still the same happens.
I know it's a 'beta' but I'm surprised how many people are having this issue and it hasn't been sorted as yet....
To my PC the upgrade ended with the green screen and the message: Bad pool header. The problem was Avira antivirus real time scanner. Only after I uninstalled all Avira programs from my PC, I coud install Build 17074 flawelessly! Nou I use Bitdefender as antivirus and all works fine. My PC is 10 years old and boot in 5 sec, with SSD! I hope that helps!
I got it upgraded with Cristian's fix. I downloaded an ISO for Build 17074 and extracted the contents to a hard drive and used set up from there. The previous build messed with the Windows Update Service so I could not get any new builds. But it appears a lot of people are having trouble with the install and I suspect that these problems are related to drivers, particularly NVidia. Yours is the first problem I have seen with AV program. I had to roll back my driver on the USB 3.1 port so that is my only driver issue so far.
I have Nvidia GeForce 9600GT but no problems with it. Only Avira antivirus was the devil in my case!
