Win10 update breaks nVidia RAID

[Diggs]

FYI - Had a client come in with an old HP desktop that was quite a power-house in it's day and had first been upgraded to Win7 (from XP) and then accidentally to Win10. All was fine until the latest updates produced "inaccessible boot device" error. It appears the drive had been in a nVidia RAID at one time but was running by itself but with a stripe set. If I reset Win10 with an old T2 copy of Win10 I have, all works fine. If let it update and reboot I get the boot device error. I even told Win10 not to update my hardware but it still happens. If I try to reset or N&P with a current copy of Win10, it doesn't even see the drive. I'm sure this will be a real problem for those running a true array using nVidia drivers

I'll kill the stripe set and re-install Win7 per customer request, but it did make me scratch my head for awhile.

I think he is also confused between updates and upgrades being English may not be his first language.
