    Hi, so honestly i'm not to sure how this problem started but i noticed my headset wasn't playing audio the other week and so i started looking into it and eventually i went into troubleshooting to do the audio test and it said it couldn't find my audio drive so i went to my updates and security tab and i had like 15 different updates there and they were all failing with the retry after attempting to install so i went and looked into it and decided it would be best to do what the stuff was all telling me because i'm not very tech savvy i only got my pc about a year ago and i only use it for gam

    Stuck in Windows 10 Upgrade

    My computer seems to be stuck in a Windows 10 failed upgrade loop. I was running fine on a beta version of Windows 10, and then I came downstairs one morning to see it repeatedly booting, attempting to repair, then rebooting. The steps I've taken to diagnose are:

    • Attempting to boot off a USB drive (with all drives disabled in BIOS) - this fails at the point of the blue windows screen
    • Attempting to boot the machine itself and getting into "repair/safe mode" using F7
    • Looking at the BIOS for obvious failures (e.g. RAM that should be there is missing) - nothing obvious is wrong.

    I am fairly certain the build version was 9926. For many months, the system would attempt to upgrade, and then say "it failed" for some reason and roll back.

    Suggestions for next steps?
