1703->1709 BSOD 0xc00000bb on devices with NVMe SSD's
- Nov 30, 2017This is a known issue. The fix for this will be included in the cumulative update that will be released today at 10am via http://catalog.update.microsoft.com (manually downloaded). It will also be included in the next Patch Tuesday cumulative update. (Ref OS #14207031, 11D)
Microsoft seems to treat this like there is a couple of hundred of us here complaining,and no one else has this problem. Well, in reality I cannot tell you how many people have this problem. I have heard from countless other people that cannot upgrade to 1709. Why in the world is it so difficult to put out a fix after about six weeks of this. All we are asking is to be able to upgrade to 1709.
I am at my end with this. I have tried every method of upgrading. Other than doing a clean install, which I refuse to do, it is impossible for people with SSD drives with NVMe to upgrade.
You can also do the workaround, which is to clone the NVME drive to a SATA drive, then boot from SATA, do the 1709 upgrade, then clone back to the NVME. Many have done this successfully, I just can't be bothered.

I have MSI Godlike Carbon X99A motherboard and Samsung SM951 M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD boot drive, and have had this problem ever since it started. Very annoying, and the PC keep trying to update many times daily, and failing!
This is ridiculous.

Never mind I just found it under others in the os selection.
I can confirm that this fixes the issue for those with the Asus X299 Deluxe board. I'm now on the 1709 version.

Where do you see that bios revision ? I'm on the asus support website for the X299 deluxe and I'm still seeing the 802.

ASUS released an updated bios (1004) for the Prime-X299-deluxe today that fixed the issue for me.

I have the problem as well, and have not noticed any block.
Now I turned the automatic update off, since my PC tried to update at least 10 times, consuming all network bandwidth.
This is my config:
Samsung 960 EVO SSD M.2 2280 - 500GB

I have also heard of countless people with different model Motherboards that have this problem. It is not just ASUS. Gigabyte and MSI Motherboards all have this problem. The common thing all of us seem to have that have this problem is the Samsung M.2 NVMe SSD.

Also tried everything possible but a clone & fresh install because i don't see why i'd have to resort to that.
Windows upgrade assistant seems to have messed up my pc even more.
From BSOD 0xc00000bb update failing to Error 0x80242006 every time my pc tries to automatically update itself.
Motherboard: MSI GAMING M7 ACK
SSD: Samsung 960 evo + Samsung 960 pro
Also a friend of mine has the same SSD's as myself but with a Gigabyte X299 AORUS Gaming 9 & has the same problems.

Signed up to add my similar experience, have several friends with largely same spec.
Same issue with 1709, same spec : Asus Prime X299 Deluxe. Samsung 960 Pro 2TB m.2.
Also, the 1709 update is also not blocked for me ( has failed 9 times, and is currently waiting for a reboot which I guess would fail). My machine is a standard build by www.scan.co.uk.
It's odd that a clean install reported to be be OK, and yet an upgrade is not.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Also having this issue. System specs:
MOB: Asus prime X299-deluxe (FW: 802; running 28 lanes with i7-7800x & quad memory)
SSD: Samsung 960 evo M.2 500GB (NVMe, FW: 3B7QCXE7)
- Scott GDec 07, 2017Brass Contributor
That seems to be the magic combination with this problem: An ASUS X299 MOB with a Samsung 960 Pro SSD M.2 using NVMe .
