Unable to update Windows 10 to v1809. Freezing at boot after reboot.

I am not being able to update my windows 10 device. After all the update files downloaded, I restarted the system (2 times). But it freezes at a boot screen like the image. It doesn't boot up. Even the keyboard isn't working at this time. And after I force shutdown using button and restart again, it takes too long to restart. And everything is back to normal like previous.

Am I doing something wrong here? Is it only me facing this issue? 

How to solve this or update my system? Someone, please help me.

PC specs:

RAM 32 GB

Graphics: NVIDIA 970

CPU: Intel(R) core(TM) i7-5820K @3.30GHz 3.30GHz

64 bit

I've installed a UXtheme patcher and a theme. If its the problem here.

    I have noticed a BIOS update on my X99 card. Could it be something with that? Anyone else with uninstalled bios updates?

    • Update Intel Micro code for security vulnerabilities

    msi firmware 7885vN9 is causing problems on the x99 platform for some users.

    i have the x99 sli krait with an e5 2650 v4 xeon with gskill 16 gb ddr4 3200 and had to go back to N8 firmware just to get the latest W10 updates.

    the 7885vN9 firmware caused all sorts of problems like no xmp. when trying to load oc profiles immediately the board would crash if you tried to save settings and reboot it would lock up ect.

    after flashing back to 7885vN8 all my problems went away.

    Hi schmak, 

    Is there any solution with asus laptop?

    I can go to install screen with usb boot then when it restarts freeze again on boot screen at spinning dots.

    Sorry I don't have an asus laptop and my 2 asus PC's (4770k and a 2700X) both work fine with 1809.  

    I would follow MSFT's advice though and DO NOT install it, stay on 1803 (which is the current release since they rolled back 1809) until they officially release it. 

    I'm in the same situation: for a couple (?) of months the Insider Preview I (stupidly) joined tries to update the computer: MSI X99 Krait Edition and it hangs on boot.

    I then try to disable the Insider Preview but can only do som for a week at the time...

    It then starts trying to update again and consumes all by network bandwidth for a day or two.

    Is there a way to permanently disable the update (until Microsoft and/or MSI) provides a fix?!

    No, I'm not going to buy a different motherboard just due to a feature update

    ! (BTW, I'm "eagerly" waiting for an upcoming update that will kill of my Adobe CS6 installation and force me into a subscription service.)

    I'll try the ISO and maybe the latest BIOS (7885vN9).

    Any use trying to install drivers updates from MSI Site?

    Maybe I'll try uninstalling Virtual Box and deactivating virtualization, which would be a pity.

    Best regards,

    Frank
