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.
- FYI - if you had to disable virtualisation, the insider team have just released a patch - https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/01/11/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-17074-pc/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
Sadly, I've had same problem with my Acer TC-780, and the advice to disable virtualization is pointless as it's hard-coded ON in the BIOS for Acer desktops. So I've been stuck now for the past month rolling back updates.
Hi Bob, I guess that the small silver lining is that the Insider Team have released the patch for this in build 17074 (won't help you, I know). There is a very good chance the next build will be ok for you. Not an ideal situation, but hopefully it won't be too long until you living life back in the fast ring.
Paul.
