Okay. Never had this kind of grief with any OS. Ever....
Running an AsRock B450M-HDV with compatible RAM (16G), Crucial M2 (GPT) sitting in the NVME slot and a GTX1050 happily living with a Ryzen 5 2600 at the helm.
One fine day - Windows updates and BSOD city. All of it. IRQ errors, page fault errors, KMODE exceptions yada yada yada.
Amazingly, it appears the whole install is now borked. Recovery = same. Goes stupid within hours. Well, lets do a fresh install. LOL. Nope.
Here's the highlights:
Changed install media, new image download, removed NVMe and went SSD, even a good ol' spinning plater HDD. Same damn crap.
So - Back to Arch (linux) for me. But I wanted to throw this out there to see if anyone else running a 'Rock has had this issue?
Cheers,
Bill

Here's the highlights:
- Sees the MVME.
- Sees the installation USB
- nothing else on the system except the GPU and the two drives above.
- secure boot is off (always has been)
- CSM off (always has been)
- The 21H1 install image downloaded onto that USB key with the creation tool does boot, but now claims that it can't use the NVMe for installation. Hmmm. OK. DISKPART dance to MBR and all the sub-steps...installation starts until it can't copy from the source. Says it's not available.
