Trying to update to Windows11 22h2 but always fails even when trying to install fresh ISO

I've been trying to update to the latest Win11pro 22h2 since last December. Not working well at all. It always gets to 98% and then "something happened" and it rolls it back to 21h2 as you see below. I've tried everything except to nuke the SDD and treat it like is was a new unit. Not really wanting to go that route.

I started just with the Windows update, no joy.

moved to the ISO, mounted and install, no joy.

turned off my Antivirus and tried above two methods again, no joy.

uninstalled my Antivirus and tired above two methods again, no joy.

I've been reading these forums and trying their ideas, no joy.

need a little help here I guess to move forward. I've pasted my machine info below and there are links to SETUPACT.log, SETUPAPI.LOG, and a screen shot of the error after a reboot from trying to install from ISO and it did its automatic roll back.

    Well, apparently or by coincidence, this wasn't a good idea. :(

    I left my computer on signed in as local administrator while I was installing Win11 from the ISO image. I left it when it was about 84%. Came back in this morning and there is no data going to the monitors. CPU was / is on, but no monitors.

    I tapped around on the keyboard to wake it up, but nothing. I would have listened for the HDDs to start making noise but I built this with 2TB_SSD's. They don't make noise...

    I pulled my video card out and rebooted the computer with the on-board graphics but I don't even get anything to login to the BIOS. So now I'm at the point of TS the MoBo to see if I can get life back in to this. Have to start pulling RAM to see if one of those smoked and is holding up the process.... ???? errrrr ;(

    Good thing I'm anal about backups....... Currently on my laptop

    Back on the Desktop. Had to pull 2 sticks of RAM out.

    So when it came back up now, it was still setup to login to Local Administrator where I left it last night.

    here's the screen:

    Is there any chance you can tell if the RAM was causing my issues?

    Well, that's weird.

    I've now got my rig back together exactly the same way it was last night; video card, RAM, everything.

    And it is running.

    Still have the Windows11 update issue, but it's running.

    Maybe my power supply is / was pushing the limits.... shouldn't be, but it's as old as the computer, so???

    THANKS FOR THE HELP, but it looks like I'm going to skip this 22H2 update. I'm running Windows 11pro 21H2 now and have never had any issues updating before, so that is telling me 22H2 isn't ready for the mainstream yet.

    Microsoft will have to debug it themselves. I'm done.

    Sorry to hear it ended up like this. If you change your mind later on and run the 22H2 installer, you may post the logs here. I'm subscribed to this thread.

    I was wondering if you are trying to upgrade without being connected to the internet. I ask because the install tries to download updates 5 times, then quits trying. Certain versions of the Install media may need some downloads to bring the install up to the current version.
