Solution
hi, this error code can be seen if drivers are corrupt or you have driver conflict.
id suggest to uninstall all non microsoft drivers, then try again

Yes i definitely think this can be a driver issue because my Cpu manufacturer(Intel)does not make any proper drivers for Windows 10,it makes drivers only up to 8.1
And when i update the drivers from device manager,it just randomly installs a driver and by the way how do i wipe out all the drivers?
I am newbie at computers😃
 
u can use cmd or powershell with admin rights
type:
pnputil /enum-devices /connected
that will give you list of your connected devices
each device will say which manufacturer driver its using
for example


Code:
Instance ID:                SWD\MMDEVAPI\{0.0.1.00000000}.{7b4013e3-3178-4fe4-b5d4-4b9b2170c2a2}
Device Description:         Digital-In (2- Sound Blaster Z)
Class Name:                 AudioEndpoint
Class GUID:                 {c166523c-fe0c-4a94-a586-f1a80cfbbf3e}
Manufacturer Name:          Microsoft
Status:                     Started
Driver Name:                audioendpoint.inf
this one is using microsoft driver as manufacturer name is microsoft

standart xxx devices are also ok
Code:
Instance ID:                USB\ROOT_HUB30\5&6139b1e&0&0
Device Description:         USB Root Hub (USB 3.0)
Class Name:                 USB
Class GUID:                 {36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000}
Manufacturer Name:          (Standard USB HUBs)
Status:                     Started
Driver Name:                usbhub3.inf

Code:
Instance ID:                PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B82&SUBSYS_C3031462&REV_A1\4&1c3d25bb&0&0019
Device Description:         NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
Class Name:                 Display
Class GUID:                 {4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
Manufacturer Name:          NVIDIA
Status:                     Started
Driver Name:               oem21.inf
here u can see manufacturer name nvidia and its using oem21.inf driver

to uninstall this non-microsoft driver u will need to use this command, only replace oem21.inf with your driver name
pnputil /delete-driver oem21.inf /force
