Windows 10: Problem after upgrade to Windows 10, version 1909

I have a HP Pavilion desktop which is several years old and came with Windows 7. It is a 64 bit system with 12 GB memory. The processor is an Intel i7-4770 running at 3.40 ghz.


Everything worked fine with Windows upgrades through 1903, but when I moved on to 1909 I developed major problems. Some things wouldn't run at all and many ran very slowly. I was advised to revert back to 1903, which helped a little, but left several things unresolved.


Firefox, my main browser, runs much slower than it used to, and reinstalling it did not help.


Quicken Deluxe 2017 now runs at a snail's pace; reverting to 1903 did not help at all.


Can anyone steer me to a solution for this situation?


Many thanks

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

i've seen this when the stock USB drivers went kaput. Only ever seen it once - i used a PCI USB 2.0 card and connected the mouse and keyboard to that, and manually updated the USB 2/USB 3 drivers.

 

upgrade to Windows 10 version 1909

I have the same problem as MICJMA22. (I might mention that I have no PAUSE or DEFER set.) However, I don't see any "above steps" for updating manually. Can you post these steps??

Or as in one of your other posts at Windows 10 pro 1903 will not update to Win 10 Pro 1909
(January 19, 2020) in which you mention having seen some comments via Google about the "Download and install now" button for "Feature Update Windows 10, version 1909" no longer appearing and some mention of possible compatability issues, you said:

"So, it sounds like MS is trying to fix a problem that will not allow update version 1909 to show up. This problem was caused by a previous MS update.",

would you now recommend waiting to see if the Feature Update, version 1909 Download and install button appears on its own later?
