yes thanks as long as I don't have a usb stick plugged in it will boot fine. 
My point is I don't want to rely on the windows 10 drivers for my devices, I have always in the past made sure I source the manufacturers specific drivers and not settled for the generic Microsoft drivers.  It is disappointing that ASROCK have not yet supplied these drivers for win10 x64

	You have to bare in mind that the motherboard manufacturer does not create drivers. The drivers packaged with any motherboard come from the vendors who's components are included on the board in question. LAN drivers come from intel/Realtek, USB3/3.1 drivers come from Intel/Asmedia etc. Manufacturers can not/will not release drivers that do not exist or have been tested and found unstable with their particular hardware. We see questions/complaints like this on the forums all the time. Sadly no matter how much a manufacturer may want to provide better performing drivers for their products they are only able to provide what is available. Some manufacturers may fine tune or tweak vendor drivers to suit a particular product better but for the most part, even then, the changes are cosmetic, adding the manufacturer logo to the splash screen of an audio applet for example. If a vendor driver is available for a particular component but has not been provided on a motherboard's download page it means the driver is either untested with that product or was found to be buggy with the product's particular configuration. Also, older products often do not have their driver pages updated beyond a certain point. All these statements are true of all motherboard manufacturers and are not specific to ASRock. I hope this helps clear things up for you. If you are wanting better USB drivers for windows 10 then you will be better served posting a thread on Intel/Asmedia forums (depending on the controller on your board).
