Does that include "boot-start" drivers?
> A boot-start driver is a driver for a device that must be installed to start the Microsoft Windows operating system.

CS designated their software as one, and when it crashed so did the whole OS to the point that the rollback process doesn't seem to be able to kick-off.

Computer made some noises, blue screened, restarted, repeat N times, then came up, and after login said something about a bad update and may have told me which device, but I forgot. I was across the room for most of it.
