I am unable to install The Windows 10 Feature update to OS version 1803(from version 1709) on my PC.

It is giving 0xc1900101 error. I have all the latest drivers on my PC. The current OS build of my PC is 16299.371.

After each failure, the update gets downloaded again and it has failed 5 times.

I would be grateful if someone could please help.

    I've an older X58 chipset based desktop which is giving 1803 update issue. After pouring through lot of forums finally found the issue with a BIOS setting called "Intel Virtualization Tech for Directed I/O" ... Sometimes named as "VT-d" ... It was enabled in my system for Hyper-V. After disabling that BIOS setting the install succeeded.

    Caveat : Hyper-V won't work after you disable VT-d and you can't enable them post the upgrade as that will result in system freeze during boot.

    Hope it helps some folks

    I forgot to ask is this update necessary? Or can we tell it not to download and install it?

    Is this going to give us trouble with computer locking up since it is having trouble downloading?

    I wonder if Microsoft actually read these forums... or care!
