  1. Terrible start up time and constant freezing - how to stop windows from installing driver


    So after replacing hardware and re installing windows i'm 100% sure of the driver that is causing my issue which is 5 minute boot times on a SSD and freezing after 1 hour or so.


    When I go into device manager and uninstall Intel R Management engine under System Devices and put windows 10 updates on hold It works perfectly for 7 days that the updates are on hold.


    But even when I have my update settings set to NOT INSTALL DRIVERS it installs that driver.... then this happens all over again...


    I've tried tracking down the driver to see if I can install the latest version and it still happens.


    Is there a way for windows to do what I told it to and not install this broken driver which has been causing me headaches for so long that im actually posting on the windows forum.

    :)

  2. Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.
