Windows 10 Almost had a heart attack...

I spent all day getting my computer up and running again.
I finally had everything working and was testing Dragon Age Inquisition, the last thing I installed.

The computer dropped out to a black screen and started to reboot.
Then it said you computer cannot boot, you will need installation media to repair it.

So I put in the Window 10 disk and tried to run repair.
It said Can't repair your computer.

I was about to scream.

I tried it several more times and the last time it didn't say anything just stopped at a black screen.

I shut is off and it started rebooting, when it got going it was apparent that it was in the middle of a update again.
Just as it was when this happened a few days ago.

It finally booted up and is working again, I rebooted it several times.

But it also updated my sound drivers again so my sound is messed up.

I made a System Image file just before I finished up so maybe I can restore that but then I guess it will update again and I'll be back in the same place.

It appears that it's the automatic update that's crashing my computer and causing the boot issues.

I have it set to notify me, but it just ignores that.

Well tomorrow I'll thy and get my sound working again, before I try a system restore.
I don't trust anything anymore.

3 more reboots and several driver installs and my sound is working again. Whew.
I hope that's is for a while, at least until the next major update.
