problem with Win 10 upgrade from Win 7 64-bit

<< < (2/8) > >>

Shane:
Then what I would do is uninstall all the nvidia drivers you can that you dont absolutely need.

What ones would you need? Well if your network card is nvidia you will want to keep the network drivers so you can download of course, and if you have raid driver or something that is required for windows to even boot. Everything else can go.

You can also see if nvidia has updated drivers, but I found it better to uninstall the current drivers, install 10 and then update nvidia drivers. That way you know the drivers get installed correctly.

Hi Shane

That sounds very promising, do you have any special instructions before I remove/uninstall all the nVidia drivers and software. I will add that I always like to take safe precautions,  so I do have a very recent image BU of my sys partition, so can always revert.

Cheers

Shane:
I would download the current drivers and save the setup just in case you uninstall the network card drivers by accident and cant get back online, then you will be able to reinstall the drivers.

Other than that do a normal backup just in case and good luck :-)

TelKen:
OK Shane, thanks for your time. Will do that right now, but probably will reply to you tomorrow, due to time difference, it may be to late for me to reply tonight  from here.

Good Health and Thanks.

Just a quickie, uninstalled all nVidia drivers, BUT each time I had to restart, and each time Windows reinstalled the nVidia drivers. I tried to stop it from this, but found it impossible, there must be a way but I don't know how.

So tried one more Win 10 install, with same result and error 80070005.

I'm off now till tomorrow, bed is calling.

Cheers.

KenTel.
