My Aspire V3-772G 9820 notebook started life with Windows 8.1 a few years ago, and was upgraded to Windows 10. Over time, automatic updates have successfully installed and my current Windows 10 version is 1709.
Automatic updates to Windows 1803 and 1809 have taken a long time to go through the install process and have failed at the 30% point, when the system restarts and the changes are undone. The upgrade to 1803 gave error code 0X8007001f. The upgrade to 1809 gave error code 0X8C1900101.
I have tried updating to 1809 from the Windows Update Assistant, and this has got past the 60% point, but has also failed and undone the changes, with error code 0X8024001e.
I've done a Windows Update error check, a disk check, have deleted the update libraries, uninstalled network and virus protection and any older programs, have done a system files check and repair, and the update still fails.
My BIOS and drivers are the latest offered by Acer or, when later drivers available, by the component manufacturer.
Has anyone successfully installed Windows 1803 or 1809 on the V3-772G and, if so, will you please let me know what you did to achieve this?
I have read that display adapters might be problematic. The Intel HD Graphics 4600 driver is 10.18.15.4248 (4 Aug 2015). I believe this is an Acer customized driver. Is it possible that this driver is the problem? Should I override the driver with the latest Intel driver or will this cause other problems?
My other display adapter is Nvidia GeForce GTX 850M with driver 22.21.13.8205 (1 May 2017).
Help would be much appreciated as I'm thoroughly sick of the repeated automatic update attempts to install the upgrades. I've set my network to metered to avoid this but I do have to check for updates occasionally to ensure I at least keep 1709 up to date.
