My install would fail at "apply_image" section with nothing useful in the error logs.
Windows 10 Creator's Upgrade success - on 4th try!
I figured out what they really meant by driver updates in that error message and went through all 167 devices in my device driver list within the system, one at a time , right clicked on it and told it to update driver by searching online.
9 devices had updates - one (or more) of which was preventing W10CE to be installed. The longest driver update was for the Logitech W310 Web camera – took a minute. The others only took 20 seconds, including search time, or so to update. I am on FIOS 25 megabytes down per second, so real fast.
Only 1 driver update stated that the system required a reboot, I did the reboot, went through the final set of devices to check, rebooted and then it finally installed from the ISO I had already downloaded onto one of my drives.
Their suggestion of disconnecting devices is bogus – since the drivers for any device is still in the system even if the external item is not connected – it still exists.
Reading that made me think of the system devise list and do check each driver one at a time to check for updates via that method.
Hope this might help with your problem.
