Windows 10: Frequent BSOD after updating to Windows 10 version 1903

Hey there.


I've updated my Windows 10 from version 1803 to version 1903 and all of a sudden hell broke loose. I have various issues, 2 of them are most important:

• PC crash and BSOD while playing

For some games I face PC crashes which sometimes is followed by a BSOD with WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. Let me explain with the games involved:


Every-time I start a match in CS:GO I'll face a crash (with an annoying continues sound) followed by a BSOD with the mentioned error. I want to emphasize that the crash won't happen until I start a match and play for a while (5-10 minutes). Here is link to mini-dump file of the latest BSOD and my system information.


Also, I face a freeze and needs to restart my PC every-time I try to resume where I was in Far Cry 4. It happens when the game is trying load and the progress bar is filling, it stop somewhere and then I can do nothing but to restart.

I've search these issues and tried popular fixes that is found with simple googling. I do not overclock my CPU or GPU, I've ran sfc /scannow and chkdsk, I've updated my drivers and I've cleaned my case's interior recently.

It worth mentioning that I face no problem while playing some other games like Call of Duty: Black Ops.

• Facing error related to network adapter trying to sart my VM

I had a VM before I update and it was working without any problem. After updating, I faced many errors trying to start it which all of them was related to bridged adapter. I've followed many solutions from the VirtualBox forum which leads me to uninstall and reinstall VirtualBox multiple times, a network reset and many other attempts followed by a restart. I've tried that much that it annoyed the hell out of me. I've asked about the latest error I've faced in this StackOverflow question.


The last thing I want to mention is that all of these sufferings are familiar and I kinda expected them to happen, because I've faced them before when I've updated my Windows 10 from version 1803 to version 1809. In that time I've done some search and tried some easy solutions, but at the end, I've rolled back to version 1803 to see everything every problem is gone. Thus, I know that if I roll back to the version I was, everything will be OK, but I really want to find another way to fix this, because I can't remain at version 1803 forever.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Window 10, Version 1903 May Update

Andre:

1. Why are all of the links that you listed not completed. On my computer currently it has Windows 10 Home Version 1803, installed 6/29/2018 with O.S. Build 17134.799. It has used space of 187 GB and 257 GB of free space.

I attempted to install Version 1903 Manually, through Settings/Windows Update, Windows 10 Update Assistant, and other ways without success. I have spent the better part of the past 3 days trying to get this accomplished on my laptop. It has worked on my
PC but not on the laptop.

Listed below are the different error messages that I get after the download stops each time at 90% and converts back to previous settings:

a. Windows 10, Version 1903 error message (0x80240034)

b. We couldn't install this update, but you can try again (0x800703fb)

c. We couldn't install this update, but you can try again (0xC1900101 - 0x4000D)

d. Feature update to Windows 10, Version 1903, We couldn't install this update, but you can try again (0x80070652)

If there are ways to get this latest update installed on my laptop, please let me know what I have to do in detail, step by step.

To early to update to Version 1903?

Those that have upgraded to Version 1903, is MS still coming out with download updates to that version quite frequently? Or, do you suggest waiting another month or 2?

I waited 3 months to upgrade to 1809. This past May, I never saw so many updates to that version......weekly! Maybe those updates were some additions that are in 1903???
