Hi so i've spent the entire day trying to figure out whats wrong and it's quiet apparent theres some drivers n stuff i need to sort out i've downloaded windows media creation tool to try and force the update but at the last option where it asks me if i want to do a fresh install or if i want to keep all files but it's constantly showing the keep files option grayed out and i can only do fresh install.

The windows version im using is 1607 which is meant to be the latest.. so i am at a loss for what to do as i don't want do a fresh install unless i have to.

Have you tried downloading and installing the drivers directly from Nvidia's site http://www.geforce.com/drivers. If not download them now and it should fix your issue. If you have tried it please let me know what error message your receiving. You should not have to force any windows updates in order to get the graphics drivers installed.

Yeah i tried and it came up with "NVIDIA installer cannot continue" "This Nvidia graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows.
