Thanks mate; I’ll try your suggestions over the weekend and report back
Bearing in mind my system although recognises the USB or CD with the RS-4 setup; it just will not start the setup process and just freezes with no hard disk activity, until I switch the machine off and reboot back to 16299
Booting from USB with Build 17046 gave me the same result
Freezing on windows logo and no circling dots underneath
Are you checking in 16299 for Sfc/scannow for errors and running DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth. I had a problem some time back with corruption with some files and had to clean install before I could update. I’m sorry that you have had a really long siege of your problem. Sorry if this is an insult, but sometime we have to go back to basics.
