I have a problem when finished installing windows 8.1 I attempt to update the normal drivers graphics card chipset lan etc. Well when trying to update those drivers my computer will not install them and locks up leaving what ever image is present on the screen. I have to hard reset the computer to get it back up and running. I have tried several clean installs and the problem still persists. My hardware is Maximus V formula motherboard 16gb ram I7 3770k Samsung 840SSD. I am not sure what is going on never had the problem with windows 7 got frustrated with 8.1 as of now and have decided to just reinstall 7 so I can use my pc, but I want 8.1 my neighbor has it and it runs considerably better when it's actually working. Any help is appreciated thanks.

Thanks for the reply I'm currently running that bios as well as installed the intel management service and updated the chipset. The problem is not with normal programs being installed it comes when it deals with hardware. I can't update my lan card it freezes on update. I can't update my graphics driver from AMD I have a 7970 half way through the install it just freezes keeps what ever image is on screen until I hard reboot by holding the power button I've been through about 20 fresh installs format repartition etc and the problem persists. I even thought of putting 7 back on and it froze on the lan install as well, but not the video driver, so I don't know what's going on. I removed the cpryto file as someone instructed elsewhere no luck wish someone new what to do, because I Just want to get back up and running.
