    Why does Windows refuse to boot after driver updates.


    I've had to reinstall windows several times on my PC and it happens every time I have to update a driver. My PC is a third-party pre-built PC. I'll attach my specs at the bottom. When I first got my PC in 2020, this happened. I had to boot and reinstall windows from a USB. I immediately turned off automatic updates and the issue subsided until about 3 months ago. I was given no other choice but to update the driver on my graphics adapter and upon restarting to update I received a blue screen and from there a recovery loop began. I Start Up repair failed, system recovery failed, system restore

    :)

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    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.

    Why does Windows refuse to boot after driver updates.

    NVIDIA Adds Windows 8 to GeForce Driver Update Stack

    AMD may have been the first to be out with drivers for its Radeon GPUs that are optimized for Windows 8 (WDDM 1.2), but NVIDIA went a step ahead of "special-releases" for its GeForce drivers, and added Windows 8 to its update stack, meaning that Windows 8 will feature in the list of operating systems to pick from, to download drivers. NVIDIA will constantly update these drivers along with mainline releases for Windows 7/Vista and XP. The latest such driver is 296.17. This driver supports GeForce and Quadro GPUs, and according to NVIDIA, is a quick-update over 295.73 WHQL, with the addition of performance optimization for Blacklight: Retribution.
