Ok let's talk about new windows update problems.. Grin

I make it easier. After I install the windows, I turn off all window tracking, all updates.
I completely shut down windows access to the Internet and I have no problems. Everything works stably

And I advise you also.

Windows search for gpedit.msc

Go to: Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Update

Change "Configure Automatic Updates" to Disable

Yes windows updater sucks.
Sometimes my pc cooler goes insane and makes a sound like an aircraft taking off.
I open taskmanager and see update going on in the background.

no idea what that is

I run windows and as the OP stated, with each Windows update i apply to my poor rigs one or more GPUs fall out of excistance. I dont know how, or why, windows hates us poor miners  Huh Angry Angry

I see absolutely no reason to have windows update enabled on mining rigs. Updates cause way more issues than solve. Even if a mining rig was compromised, no damage can be done or nothing could be stolen.

Just manually update every few months.


I Kind of agree with you, but logic dictates that an update would provide more stability. Atleast that is what i think, without reading the patch notes.
And ofcourse they are not updating automaticly. That would be miner suicide  Grin
