Anyone Brave Enough To Read My Logs? (1803/1809/1903 (fromWI) Fail
I'm not good at interpreting logs partly due to failing eyesight and partly due to my ignorance of how they work.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks. That's long list so I'll get to it just as soon as I've dealt with my mail and booted from Win 7 to Win10.
23: The BIOS is up t0 date according ro ASUS website. This is NOT a Dell machine so would rather not tun their software (26) as it plants ads everywhere.
27: Interesting, I'll have to pull the card out of my machine if I can reach it, to prevent software/drivers etc installing. So I am wondering if that is the culprit right there.
With regards to question 8. I only have McAfee installed in my C: Windows 7 so do I need to uninstall that for another partition/disk's problems?
The specs in the "My Computer" section displayed Dell.
Other computers were not yet displayed.
Step #25 will be useful.
Steps#8 #23 #26 were based on the posted Dell information.
Skip these steps since the computer with the failed upgrade is Asus.
The motherboard is ASUS, the computer is Alienware prior to the Dell takeover. I just missed that by a week or 2. Will attend to your other requests and update my computer details asap.
For all steps please follow in kind with the number to make sure all steps are completed.
For device manager see the upper left corner menu area > click view > click show hidden devices > manually expand all rows > look for any row displaying a yellow triangle with black exclamation mark or unknown device > post images into the thread
There is no need to perform windows upgrades until communicated in the thread.
The failure code 0xC1900101 - 020017
Resolution procedures - Windows IT Pro | Microsoft Docs
Please perform step #24 now.
Also steps #1 to #4.
Sorry for the slowness answering, but I'm out a lot having tests done since I had a recent heart attack and they think I'm due for a quadruple bypass and 2 valve replacements....major..... so I'm gone from here a lot. I will get back to you asap.
The failure to upgrade can be troubleshooted after you recover from the surgery.
Then it should be 1903.
Thanks but that could be a long time ahead so I will answer the questions asap.
I was merely pointing out that it will be done when I can.
