    Thanks The Guardian.
    I don't know if I understood well. Did You use media creator tool to install Windows 10 first?
    I have to try this metod. In my machine special change Nividia and others OEM drivers. After this windows update should I reinstall the drivers from OEM ?

    Yes, I used the M$ media creation tool for win10.
    When you get updates it will auto install drivers but after they are all installed and no more present to install then set option in first post, restart and rollback driver or install your oem drivers of choice. It needs all updates to work properly. Which update I dont know but I know once I got all updates this isnt an issue anymore and my oem drivers stay put. I wish you luck, take care.

    Uninstall all drivers through Device Manager, uninstall driver, install new driver before rebooting as that is when drivers are installed, on reboot, see #10 in Quick Links in sig

    I leave it on where others like to turn it off. Since I got free upgrade during that time period and disabling drivers from installing via windows update I see no need to disable it. My opinion.

    I forgot yet ask.
    Now I turned on Windows update. IT shows me update devices, I have installed all. Now shows no updates now, but when I use WUMT it shows me yet few updates to install devices yet.
    What than ? Should I install them by WUMT ?

    If windows updates show no updates left then those within the wumt arent really needed for your device. Windows update knows your device and only gives you what you should need. The updates in wumt wont hurt but you have what you need according to M$ windows update. Now uninstall any drivers you dont want and install your oem drivers that work, set option to not get driver updates anymore from first post then restart and you should be good now.

    I would leave it on if you use WUMT and do what The Guardian said:D

    Can You write me what You think about drivers to intel HD and Nividia, please ? I have to devices : Intel hd 4600 and Nividia Quadro K1100M. Realy I don't know whats better to Windows 10. Should I stay with OEM drivers which are old or Install from Intel or Nividia ?

    You will have to try and see which is better for win10.

    Ppl think that the newest drivers are better and if you have new hardware that might be true but if your hardware hasnt changed then the only thing newer drivers have is support for newer hardware. If your hardware has not been updated then you should be ok with the older driver. Most oems have now updated driver support for win10 anyways. Even if the driver is a year old but your hardware hasnt changed, you should be good to go.

    Remember, newer isnt always better when it comes to drivers. ;)

    IT's realy work. On my machine this drivers which I have uninstal by device manager. Only one device was update again by windows update, but this I wasn't install by device manager. I have to install this by exe. This name FUJ02B1 - on intel QM87 LPC Controller - ACPI\VEN_FUJ&DEV_02B1.
    This driver I back up from device manager to older version.

Realy I don't know and understand probably in my situation this Block no works.I can add yet that it shows me Intel hd update, but no update automatic only shows and message that in free time will update this device.
