  2. USB sound card goes on/off/on/off during Windows 10 boot up

    Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, there is no "power management" tab when I click on "USB Audio Device" in Device Manager. I did disable the USB selective suspend setting under power plans. This action, though, had no effect on the sound card on/off/on/off
    cycle during bootup.

    Windows 10 Background Slideshow not working

    I have the same issue. I wish I could stop automatic update of windows 10 and/or have a way to back out of it to the previous version. Everytime I get an update something quits working. The time before last my background slideshow quit working, then I
    got the latest background and sometimes it during bootup or restart it will start to paint the screen and freeze after about 20% of the screen changes with the remainder being sort of semi-clear.

    Last year my internal wifi quit working but I took a USB wifi from an old windows XP computer and plugged it in and my wifi works. The internal wifi always tests good but windows 10 won't allow it to connect. I've tried a driver update and backdown to
    an earlier version of the driver. Why would my old USB nub for wifi work just fine?

    I want a restore that will back out a bad update.
