Oaky I did as asked I had eight devices 1. PCI Device says it update then says it couldnt find drivers, 2, 3. and 5. were all PCI Devices but showed no problems. 4. unknown device updated but then said no known drivers. 6. Unkown device updated then says no known drivers.7. SM Buis Conmtroller no drivers. 8. unknown device updated then no known drivers.

I made a new restore point and backed up current drivers.
Of note I'm still running Win 10 I have not upgraded to 11 and won't if I don't get this fixed. Because I haven't had one crash yet.
I've included the driverviewer and a new V2

I will move over to Devices and Drivers and start a new thread. And will follow your instructions here

I'll see if I can search for these specific devices but I'll post a thread in Devices and Drivers like you recommended. Since I'm not having any BSOD should I go ahead and clear this thread? I have no problem staying win10. at least so far. Thanks for all your help.

Win-11 is a strange creature. I've installed it nearly 20 times so far, using an ISO from a known good site, burned to a Flash Drive using Rufus. (which takes out a lot of the MS nasties). During the initial install, the Windows Installer will install basic drivers for the video, LAN, and sound, just to get me up and running. And, they all work OK.

Then I will reboot multiple time over the next 24 hours, or so, while connected to the internet.
Every time Windows boots up, it takes an inventory of all the connected hardware, and sees if it needs any drivers.
Once Windows realizes it has the improper driver for something, like the GPU, it will find, and download, and then install the correct driver. Just give it time.
Then when I have all the drivers I need, I give Windows updates the ol' heave ho! (I disable it)

The first time I ever saw that happen, was actually on Windows 8.1/Pro/64, and I was blown away, when on day two after I had booted up my PC, the screen went black for what seemed like forever, although it was only for a few seconds, and when it came back on it was at it's maximum recommended resolution. I looked in the Device Manager and sure enough, the correct video driver had just been installed.

I've never gone searching for drivers for Windows 8.1, 10 or 11 since then. If I just give Windows some time, it will finger it out!

Cheers Mates!

Today is 07/07/2023.
Windows 10 was installed on 07/02/2023.
That's approximately 5 days.

Use the computer regularly for 2 more days making one week of monitoring.

Post a new V2 share link into the newest post.

If there are no new BSOD then that will compete the troubleshooting
.
It may not be necessary to install the above drivers if there are no noticeable performance problems.

Consider making a new backup image and saving the image to another disk drive or the cloud.

zbook i will do as asked. I will post the V2 link over in Devices and Drivers then. Again thanks for yor help.

You're welcome.

Glad to help.

With you're plan to remain with Windows 10 I'm sorry that I'd referred you to open the new thread in EF instead of TF.
