What does the pop up say? It will have nothing to do with Windows update.

it says Google drive (with a coloured logo)
sign in through your browser
and I have noticed it puts it's little logo on the task bar at the bottom, it just pops up straight away before I go on the internet

thank you Barry I have done what it says on your link so I will let you know later if it has fixed it
I think that the answer that barry has provided is different to what you're after.
The link shows you how to disable sign in with Google pop-ups on websites.
If it doesn't work, try the following:
Press and hold the following keys all at the same time:
"Ctrl" + "Alt" + "Delete"
Note it has to be "delete" and not "backspace"
On the screen that opens up, select "task manager"
On the tabs that run across the top, select "startup"
This will give you a list of programmes that start up when your PC boots up. Under "status" you'll see that some are enabled and some are disabled. See if there's anything in there for Google Drive
and disable it.

If that doesn't work, try:
