Don't bother updating your drivers with Windows update (as it's generally useless and out of date, and regardless these would be in the optional section anyway so most often won't be installed unless you changed the setting), please go to the manufacturers third party site and download direct.
 
> As I know windows updates will not update firmware or bios...Right?.
 
Right.

No, they won't update your BIOS or firmware.
 
Note: Windows 8.1 killed my UM-3G. Fortunately Cakewalk had a fix for it.

It was more a "confirmation attack"...check to check it got through... on the MS updater program, and what It does not do...x and y..So do not let it update drivers......Not that I did not know...I do, as it was said I know....but win 8.1 is new to me...and it does have some qerkies at the moment....but I think I have sort of fixed my problem with no audio play back, via finding the output change, and putting it back to where it was when I saved the project before updating my selective choices from MS, after declining auto updates and the blue screen, saying I have to restart my system to install new updates...no way around that blue screen....which I found odd to begin with...So beware...something is doing nasty things on internet...I guess?.
 
So what is amuck?....who knows?....but qerkies and gremlins fears spawning no doubt about it, with this now to ponder out.
 
Be careful Peeps!....MS need money?, and may be doing this to gain support tickets at a cost for their support plans, and Indi call room relationships continually running profits .....(assumed of course)...wink
 
Have the greatest of days...in bliss if possible.
If I find any other oddities and or solutions... I will note em,  or retrieve via any other postings to solve for, or of likeness if necessary to verify .
 
Respect and regards!
