Sorry for the late post. Just posting back here to say I finally go this to work. What I did was install those two updates and Windows now loads its own signed NVMe driver and it worked, well, sort of. I still had the Crucial DLL in the system32 folder and as such Windows still complained on boot up. So I removed that DLL from the system32 folder and now Windows boots without complaining and uses the Windows NVMe signed driver. Oddly, the Windows NVMe driver is signed in the year 2006.
I did import the registry file you linked to, but that didn't change anything. Being the computer person I am I verified your registry file with this website for what it was worth. My tools were Notepad++ and DiffMerge. Doing that I found some inconsistencies and if memory serves, your registry file was missing 8 Certs. but had a few that website didn't have and I verified those through Google searching as well. They were recent Certs. though released this past month. There's also this Github Repo but it's not been updated. I was also reading there were very old Certs. that probably shouldn't be installed for security reasons. Without doing some further research on that premise I installed them anyway (for now).
Thanks for the help on this. It has been a real PITA just to get Windows 7 installed on a NVMe despite me installing Windows or Linux time and time again even in VMware, this one was a real PITA for me. I'm probably going to buy NTLite in the near future to A)support development B) It's been quite useful and C) I have some projects in mind that NTLite will work great for. Namely to strip down Windows Starter for a server I want to create.
