Re: Windows 10 Installation Unknown Error C1900101-40017

As I'm not a big fan of windows and prefer Linux, but I managed finally after several attempts to upgrade from win 7 to win10 on my son's brand new game PC.
it is AMD machine with a Radeon r7 260x.
Below is the steps you must follow. I gathered them from the different forums:
1. Go "Run" from Start menu, type msconfig
2. Choose startup tab uncheck all startup programs.
3. Go to services tab, scroll down to windows update service, choose automatic update option, and start (or restart service).
4. Unplug all your USB gear, except mouse and keyboard.
5. Start download.
6. If win 10 boot hangs on 3-rd (configuration step), go to troubleshooting, find there boot options or something like that, select advanced boot options (or something like that), and on reboot choose option 7 (disable drivers verification).
7. If your fresh win10 installation continuously stucks with driver verification on boot, try to disable it by doing this:

Open terminal and paste this command line in it
"bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks on" (without quotes).
To enable again, issue command:
"bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks off"


Hope it will help

Honestly, why Microsoft has not put in place a system that allows to know exactly if the Windows 10 drivers are available for any component of any desktop and any laptop simply by using a big database?!! Because I assume these many problems are directly related to a lack of Windows 10 drivers for particular components of a computer or laptop!!

I have a laptop Acer Aspire 8942G with a lot of hard disk space, 8 GB of RAM and an Intel core i7 quadcore and so far I failed twice to install Windows 10, as it overheated my laptop and therefore it shuts down automatically when it is overheating!!

I wasted two days so far trying to install this f-g Windows 10!! Acer does not support my laptop that runs Windows 7, as they only support the most recent laptops!! So, Acer does not provide Windows 10 drivers for my laptops!!
