15063 Creators Build multiple driver issues

Joe Jitzu · 21 Apr 2017

Acer Aspire 9410Z Intel duel core 1.73 gHz, 2 gb memory, 500 HD, 32 bit system.
I have the newest bios that Acer offers for it, and chipset. on Insider slow ring.
This old laptop runs great, until 15063 build. Once updated I have no internet, wifi or ethernet. I go to device manager and there are multiple driver issues logged. PCI to PCI bridge, USB, High def audio, Broadcom network adapter, etc etc..... Code 12 "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use." Code 31 "'This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load"

Ran troubleshooters and repairs and read forums until my eyes are crossed. I rolled the build back to 14898 three times to try and find a workaround.

Any help please. MS has thrown me under the bus, with this update. My current build expires a week from now, and original operating sys was oem, no chance of going back to it now.

thank you.

Hi Joe Jitzu Welcome to the TenForums @ Joe Jitzu

When you are on new release could you try install olded drivers. Say from 14898 levels. I would even consider getting drivers right from Acer.

Another member reported that he got Internet "working" by entering BIOS and disabling wired NIC. Not sure if your BIOS has that option but worth a shot. He also didn't have all the issues you have but his main concern was no internet.

thanks for reply, I did download and apply all the drivers from Acer Broadcom, chipset, bios. and did try rolling back some drivers from \windowsold file but didn't help. no wired option available in the Acer supplied Pheonix bios.

One other real long shot. Unplug, remove battery, hold power for 20 secs, reassemble.

Wish I had more. Hopefully another member will have a more constructive answer.

Might also be an idea to clean install although that entails data backups.

If I find something I'll be back.

Kept thinking about this. Can't you opt out of the Insider builds and install, clean the Creators Update?

I tried cold boot with battery removed and power switch down 30sec, no change. I was going to do a clean install but then there is no rolling back. Also I will loose digital licence from OEM to win 10. I changed to Insider Preview and current digital licence for 14898 expires May 1, if no solution before then I'll clean install. Currently I'm running Linux program (Knoppix) while looking for drivers workaround.
thanks again for the help.
