Microsoft stops distributing AMD driver for Windows 10, causing OS boot problems

Earlier this week, Microsoft began distributing AMD SCSI Adapter 9.3.0.221 driver, the installation of which, as it turned out, in some cases leads to problems with subsequent loading of Windows 10. It seems that the developers have noticed an issue since the mentioned driver can no longer be loaded via ” Windows Update

The problematic driver became available to users of compatible devices based on Windows 10 at the beginning of this week. Not only insiders but also ordinary users of the software platform could install it. Shortly thereafter, reports began to appear on the Microsoft support site. In user communities on the Internet, installing a new AMD driver was preventing the operating system from loading. The messages said that after installing the driver and rebooting the system, a message appeared on the screen about the inaccessibility of the boot disk. The reason for this behavior is unknown, but most often, the error appears on computers with Gigabyte Aorus motherboards based on the X570 chipset.

Now the problematic driver has disappeared from Windows Update, suggesting that Microsoft has noticed numerous complaints. Obviously, after fixing the errors, the driver will again become available to users, but when this can happen is still unknown. Users who have encountered a problem after installing the mentioned update need to roll back the system to a previous stable state, that is, to the moment when the new AMD driver has not yet been installed.. “
