Fall Creators Update fails to install
Attempted from 16299.15 ISO.
Suspect something to do with AMD 17.7.2 driver (latest for this system) since it aborts at 33%.
Edit: Today I did a clean install of Windows 10 Pro 16299.15 on a unused partition. It installed with any issues and Windows 10 installed AMD driver 16.6. I installed CU to get to 16299.19. I then downloaded from AMD the latest driver for this system 17.7.2. While installing it crashed Windows 10. There were no error messages. Just a blank black screen. After restart I found that the AMD driver was in an uncompleted state. I tried to roll back to the default driver that Windows 10 installed during the clean install. I was never able to completely recover from the crash. Although Device Manager shows the original 16.6 driver installed and working, AMD Settings will not open claiming there is not a valid AMD driver installed. Over all this was a bad idea.
I suppose now it is just waiting game to see if HP, AMD or MS fixes this driver issue.
Edit: AMD has released beta drivers for FCU. See post #8. The beta is compatible with my system and FCU.
