Just got a question but issue has been resolved just wanting to know if anyone else had this issue.

I did a new build for my son components were a MSI B350M Bazooka MB (bios 7A38v1J latest except for the Beta that just got release) , AMD Ryzen 1600 cpu and Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 memory and a MSI Geforce GTX 1060 video card'

During the setup which was a clean install it came up with a message about missing drivers but of course did not tell which one so W10 would not install.This was from a USB stick that I just dl'ed W10 using MediaCreationTool1903. Did MS change something as I have done this many times using a older version of W10 that was burned to a dvd that was created using MS Media creation Tool. I don't know which version it was but it was atleast 2 years ago maybe when it got created. I used that older disk and did not have a issue with missing driver and installation went well except of course for the 100 updates due to older version. Why on the older version no issue but on the newest one had a issue...that does not make any since to me unless MS has change something. Thanks!

Looks like others are having issues updating to 1903 due to conflict with NVIDIA graphics driver. Wonder if a graphics driver issue was my problem but it was a clean install.

The Nvidia Geforce graphics drivers lately are broken into the categories DCH and standard. I am not quite certain what the difference exactly is and what determines which one is required, but I have noticed some machines need DCH version installed and the standard ones will not. Hope this helps.

I had no problem installing 1903 et al. on this system which uses a 1080 operating on driver 419.67.

One of my desktops with Nvidia GPU (1060) did the upgrade just fine, and has been running perfectly for a few days now. The other one I haven't touched yet (as far as the 1903 update), but I don't anticipate a problem.
