        Qualcomms Arthros is a net work adaptor ie wireless connection.

        Error code 43 denotes that one of the drivers controlling the device notified the operating system that the device failed in some manner.

        Method 1:

        You may try running the Hardware Troubleshooter to diagnose the issue better.

        Refer the link below:

        Method 2:

        Download and install the latest wireless network adapter drivers from the computer or device manufacturer and check.

          Thanks for that joss, I deleted the driver and reinstalled it last night ran Windows update to see if it worked ………. but no, still running version 1903 instead of 21H1 ?

            Have you tried unplugging the thing shaking it violently whilst shouting, then replug it back in, turn on put the kettle on and let it load up in its own time whilst making a cuppa..

                  The thing is, when I search for updates 21H1 doesn’t appear, or the one before that. My computer is updating other windows packages with no problem.

                    This is my version;

                    Edition Windows 10 Pro
                    Version 21H1
                    Installed on ‎15/‎05/‎2021
                    OS build 19043.1052
                    Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.2020.0

                    As I have said before you need to

                    The only solution that worked for me was to basically run repair of your windows install. Takes a while but it works.

                    Basically your running and older version of win 10, so it needs updating to newest version. The guide I posted works fine Brydo. Try doing it again.

                          @joss have you heard anything about windows 11 only being available for 8th generation and newer CPU’s seems it will exclude millions or force people to upgrade.

                            Hi @Noel  To be honest with you, there are so many rumours flying about regarding Win 11 at the moment. However, “windows 11 only being available for 8th generation and newer CPU’s ”

                                  No plan to “upgrade” to 11 any time soon as having a Microsoft account to install it is now compulsory, unlike 10 where you can just use a local account.

                                  Hopefully someone will find a way round it 🙂

                                    @Phaedra  You can still have a local account under win 11.

                                    As I have said before, win 11 is changing daily so just keep an eye out

                                            Cheers just checked all the requirements and i seem to have them.. My sytem wouldnt let that run so i went to microsoft and got a list.

                                            So when its available i will double check but leave it for a couple of months probably to get the issues ironed out. Ive 2 fairly powerful zbooks  and i think both will be ok. certainly this one is.

                                            thanks

                                                      I still can’t get my computer to download a windows update, it will download security updates but my computer is now not supported.

                                                      I have also just found out that I can’t update to windows 11 as my processor is too old.

                                                      So initially looking to fix the update clich but likely to buy a new computer in the next year or so.

                                                      Any help you n either of the fixes would be much appreciated. I’ve tried every option on YouTube without success so maybe it’s something I will need to live with until I get a new one.

                                                        If it’s “too old”, there likely won’t be a fix other than getting at the very least a new CPU/motherboard. The reason for the incompatibility is most likely TMP 2.0 – you can check whether or not you can activate it in the BIOS (most boards after around 2015-2016 should have the option). If not, you’re out of luck. If you do, activate it and see if things got better. I personally don’t plan to upgrade for at least another year, considering W11 has VBS on by default – i genuinely can’t be arsed to faff around in the registry to get the computer to run as well as my W10 brick now. For those that don’t know, VBS is Virtualization-Based Security. Which leads to an up to 25% decrease in general performance. It’s rumoured to be only activated on OEM/SI systems, but why take chances – W10 runs sweet.

                                                        32gb 3600mhz ram “4 sticks for the x570 buff”

                                                        That’s not quite correct. It’s not about how many sticks you slap in, but how many ranks your ram has. 8gb sticks usually are single rank, 16gb sticks are dual rank. You always want to run a Ryzen dual rank, which is either 2x16gb or 4x8gb.

                                                        4x8gb is dual rank (two memory channels, 2x single rank each), as is 2x16gb (one memory channel, 2x dual rank). The main difference here is that 2x16gb is easier on the memory controller, making overclocking more stable/easy. There’s no difference between 4x8gb and 2x16gb for the average user though, that’s mostly for overclockers.

                                                        I’m assuming you got that information from our saviour, computerjesus aka Steve from Gamers Nexus? If so, in that video, he pinned a comment that the speed boost is exclusively in relation to 2x8gb and 4x8gb (due to the fact that 2x8gb would run single rank, not dual rank), and refers to Wendell who says that 2x16gb is the sweet spot.

                                                        Other than that, nice system. I’d like to upgrade (3800XT, 2080 Super, 32gb 8Pack Edition 3600CL14), but i don’t feel like i’m getting enough out of it just yet for the amount of time/money i’d need to spend. I’ll jump this generation (indeed, that’s how i usually do it – buy new stuff, float over the next generation and then buy new stuff again), i’ll be looking at 40xx cards once they come out.

                                                        It always hurts to realise after spending two grand on my PC that all it does for the main part is to run Minecraft at doubled frames lol.
