Can someone help me or do I have to revert back to an earlier version?

    Please refer to the last answer; https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/390273/dx4860-windows-10-need-bios/p1

    You're talking about 1709 Creator's Update which is not support for Gateway DX4860. There are ways to do this but I recommend staying where you're. To revert Windows:

    Having opened the Settings panel, click on updates and security and here select Recovery settings.

    Next click on the Get started button under Go back to an earlier build section.

    The process will start, and you will be asked some questions for information purposes, as to why you are going back to the previous build of Windows 10.

    The wndows ten that's currently loaded works fine, the problem is the auto download of Win 1709, It downloads than tries to install it eventually getting stuck at 82%. I reboot, the system restores previous version and the vicious cycle begins again, Is there a way to disable the auto download?

    Worked for me as well ( Physically remove the Card) as posted by HockeyNight.    Done this with success on several Gateway desktops.
