Windows 10 upgrade fails on Windows 7 PC

If you cannot find drivers for the new Windows 10 specifically from your device manufacturer (and GPU manufacturer if you have one installed), it is my own humble opinion that the system not be upgraded. Chances are the internal computer hardware was created specifically for older systems, and upgrading runs the risk of stability or speed issues in the future.

The choice is yours, but my own experience tells me driver problems are a major headache personally.

Is there anyone here who knows they have drivers provided by their computer/motherboard manufacturer online specific for Windows 10, but are still having issues upgrading? Because those people my have success following these tutorials on the old operating system before upgrading:
DISM - Repair Windows 10 Image - Windows 10 Forums
SFC Command - Run in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

I have been trying to upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 SP 1 on my Asus ET2701INKI without success. I have used three sources/methods: the downloaded ISO file, image of same burned on DVD, and from Windows Update. Except once, during the second reboot, a blue-gray screen (I think; I am color-blind) appears declaring a problem because of VIDEO MEMORY MANAGEMENT INTERNAL; a futile attempt is then made to recover the installation whereupon windows 7 is restored. When that was accomplished, a blue (?) box appeared with the error code 0xC190019-0x400017.
After updating all my drivers and running a highly-rated Registry fixing program to no avail, I even went so far as to
upgrade Windows 7 with a newly bought copy, after which the Windows 10 upgrade from the ISO download actually succeeded' but when I did an unrelated reboot, the same screen with the VIDEO MEMORY MANAGEMENT INTERNAL message appeared. Nothing worked to fix the problem; only turning off the machine and on again triggered a restoration to Windows 7.
I have searched the web, called Asus for help to no avail. What little I found suggested doing the windows 10 install with Virus software uninstalled and all peripherals disconnected; both "remedies" I tried without success.

Hi David, I have similar problem, upgrading would not work and it is always to do with the video card driver, must of downloaded 4 or 5 times. Decided on doing a dual boot eventually got one to work and I noticed the NVidia drivers hadn't loaded that's why it worked, I also found older NVidia drivers that worked, turned off all privacy and did what I found on the web to stop any updates happening. I installed antivirus, a couple of programs, everything working fine for a week until one day it said when I shut it down just making changes to computer in other words it had downloaded updates. Now it goes into a continuous boot loop I cant even get to safe mode I know with the updates its changed the graphics driver to the latest version which doesn't work with our system, this is microsofts fault by not allowing you to turn off updates and ASUS DONT WANT TO HELP and I bought this pc only 2 years ago brand new, asus could probably solve the problem but I think all these firms just want to make us buy new pc's. Microsoft has known through all their operating systems that there can be a lot of problems when doing updates (SO WHY FORCE IT ON PEOPLE ) and that's why you turn them off until you know that they are okay to install, some people can't afford to lose everything they have on their computer. i'm sure windows 10 is very good but there is somethings that need to be changed before we upgrade or they want us to just buy a new one , I paid 2300 for my ASUS and now really disgusted with them.

UPDATE finally got into safe mode , checked graphics driver and yes Microsoft installed latest, so reinstalled old driver , there is an area were you can tick to stop ms drivers being added, so ticked that but other people have said that it doesn't work. so I also decided to connect with wifi instead of Ethernet and then tick restrict my connection so it only downloads the small necessary updates not the drivers as it thinks you have a limited connection, you can only do this in wifi and not the Ethernet connection another ms mistake. restarted windows 10 and all worked good, this is still not the answer and I still haven't been able to upgrade my 8.1 I have a few ideas up my sleeve but it is my main OS and don't have the time.

I've instaled today the 02-10-2015 update driver for GeForce 640M.

Let's see what happens..
