SL crashing on hardware detect, tried several different viewers with clean installs

Hello,

I have been having a problem with one of my computers when i try to start up any second life viewer.

This has just started up within the last week.

When i try to start up the viewer it gets to the hardware detect stage then crashes.

 

I have tried clean installs of:

the current release version LL viewer

LL beta viewer maintinance release from 11/20/2015

Firestorm 32 bit havok version 4.7.5(47975)

Firestorm 64 bit version 4.7.5(47975)

Alchmey 3.8.5 (October 25, 2015)

Firestorm 64bit version 4.7.3(47323) worked previously, but not now.

I get the same crash from all of these.

 

The only recent changes to the system are windows updates and clean installs of new viewer versions.

 

system setup:

AMD Phenom II x6 1045T processor at stock clock speed

gigabyte Geforce GTX 970 at stock clock speed Driver version 359.00 (November 19,2015)

12GB ram

Windows 10 Pro with all current updates ( the 1511 update installed)

I have it working, I had to use -noprobe to bypass the hardware check as described in this thread.

I still no idea why it is having trouble though.

Windows 10 prob installed its own crappy graphics driver update, best to turn off MS driver updates and only use ones provided by the hardware manufacturer.
