HP Recommended
Product: HP ProBook 445 G8 Notebook PC (2U741AV)

Machine boots to either the HP boot screen and hangs, or boots to the preparing automatic Repair screen, then eventually blue screens with a DRIVER PNP WATCHDOG error. I ran the boot menu tests, and everything tests good. Tried booting to a Windows 10 bootable USB which works, but then I need the drivers for the disk. Downloaded all drivers for the machine, but they are all in executables, so I can't load them in Windows installer. Any help with this would be great. An image to refresh it would be great.
