I've tried using Windows Update, repairing Windows update, using Windows Media Tool to create a bootable USB for a clean install, unplugging all peripherals including mouse and keyboard, reseting BIOS settings to defaults. No matter what I try, when booting to setup after installation through Windows Update, or when booting from the USB ISO the system hangs on the Windows logo for hours with no spinning dots and no hard drive activity. All I can do it hit the reset button. When trying to install via Windows Update and having to do a hard reset when it locks up, the resulting error code I find is 0xc1900101.

do hibernate, resume, enter BIOS, enable VT-d, save & exit, continue boot - success (no freeze).

2018-07-03T15:17:54+00:00 Hi, yeah, I do use VMware. I tried turning VT-d back on, but Windows simply spun again. Were you able to reenable VT-d on your machine?
In fact, I'm now finding that 1 out of 2 boots hangs. It boots reliably to Safe Mode. Have you encountered this situation? Thanks!
Also, had to reinstall Chrome as whatever was in this release blew it up too. It's one thing to force users to change their setup when there's a major new release (Windows 7 -> 10, for instance). It's another to break things willy-nilly during an update!!!
