About this tag
Windows 10 Technical Preview build 9860, released in October 2014, introduced several issues for users. Tablet mode was notably affected, with the virtual keyboard failing to push the page up to the status line, making the platform less tablet-friendly. Compatibility problems with third-party antivirus software like McAfee were reported, sometimes requiring a rollback to build 9841. Users also encountered difficulties playing DVD videos in Windows Media Player or VLC, and custom resolution settings on Nvidia SLI systems could cause BlueScreens related to cdd.dll. The build did not initially allow changing Windows Update settings without registry edits, though some users later found a manual option. ISO images for clean installs were available from third-party sites.

I could do this in Build 9841 but in Build 9860, every time I try to set a custom resolution (5960x1080) I get a BlueScreen which seems to be related to cdd.dll. Since this is an Nvidia SLI system running three monitors it might be specific to that type of operation, but this behavior is worse...
In the 9841 build, if you were running Nvidia multi-monitor displays, the Nvidia Control panel was put in a situation where is was not able to make changes to monitor configuration (or anything else) because some app was open and needed to be closed.
The open apps it would refer to were apps...

If you manually installed build 9860 using the > PC Settings / Preview Builds method, after the new build is installed open the Control Panel and run Windows Update. You may find that KB3008956 has not been installed which is part of the new build. You need to manually install this update...
