    Windows graphic driver updates keeps causing boot failure.


    I have a Acer swift 3x laptop with Intel Iris Xe and Iris MAX integrated graphic cards. A few years ago, I had problems with the MAX card, which I believe was due to hardware failure. But I can still use Iris Xe, so its fine for now. Recently though, my laptop failed to boot and went into the automatic repair option menu without giving any information or error codes, but I was able to fix it by updating the graphic drivers from the Intel website while in Safe Mode. For some reason, Windows Update keeps trying to roll back my graphic drivers to the versions that cause it boot failure. So now,

    :)
