[BigMudTrux]

Here we are.. Brand new 970 Evo plus 500gb nvme. Windows installed .. Just going to do drivers and see where I land

To do first, create a new system restore point.

So then I can go ahead and install my drivers?

[phillpower2]

Yes, chipset then storage drivers should be the first and in that order, pain in the proverbial I know but always create a new system restore point before installing any driver, before installing the GPU drivers, get Windows and if using Defender both fully up to date, create the usual restore point, install the GPU drivers and test, if all ok, create a new system restore point then follow the guide here to stop Windows from updating your GPU drivers, you can ignore the warning that says the device may not work properly as that is just Windows not wanting you to be in charge of your computer.
