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.
Justing too tired to try anything more. I've tried everything even manually reinstalling my graphics driver after performing a complete and total reset, whereas I made sure that nothing extra was installed. This was the last step I took after following just about every other recommendation I could find on the net with no resolve. The dots just keep spinning after the first automatic restart.
I think the latest update just plain has something wrong with Alienware Area 51R-2, running AMD. And Windows, you might want to look into it.
BTW, I don't think 17074.0002 fixed it.
Just a quick heads-up on 17074 - I have it installed but when I tried to print I got errors saying there was a problem with my Printer Setup.
I have an OKI C301DN.. It works fine from other connected PCs but not the 17074 version pc.
I have been onto OKI and this is a new error from their point of view. All drivers deleted and reinstalled. Gone back to generic driver from OKI - still no joy.
Also my previous 'loudspeaker' default also suddenly changed without anything being done by me.
Something is not quite right.
Also a lot of CPU being used by Telemetry Services?
Will report back if this is resolved
I got the same problem with a Dell C3765dnf on 1704. It worked until this update...
Thank you Michael. As a beta tester for security on Windows Vista, I really appreciate Microsoft Windows. I did not have a chance to do any beta testing on Windows 7 or 8 because I was too busy with life. Anyway, I had another failure with Windows 10. A client had 2 computers that were infected with mal-ware. I brought the Windows 7 Professional 64 bit back without a problem. As a computer technician who has also worked at a Computer Shop for over a year I have had the chance to work on many different computers mainly Windows with a few Apple Computers thrown in for good measure. Anyway, I only ran into one time when a Windows 7 computer was so damaged that the operating sytem had to have a clean install. It was so amusing. The message from Microsoft was basically we are very sorry but you will have to do a clean install of Windows because it has been too badly damaged. Windows 8.x worked well but not as well as 7. With this new client, I restored the Windows 7 Machine from the malware but the Windows 10 machine will most likely require a clean install.
