Uncertain if this was an issue before installing Windows 11. Earlier on Windows 10, a problem appeared with my monitor (see thread). I submitted my GPU and changed the HDMI cable, but the glitch persisted. Now with Windows 11, my screens go black except for a small white button in one corner. It restarts too quickly, making it hard to diagnose. I’m using version 22621 with SMBIOS BIOS A.50. I’ve updated BIOS once before, but it’s not ideal. I don’t want to damage my MOBO. Thanks! EDIT: It seems the issue started right after I unzipped the software. The button appeared at the top of an open window on the desktop. Possibly a graphics issue between WOW and my PC? EDIT2: Yes, it looks like a graphical problem. Now it happens very often, and after it occurs, I can’t move my character in the game. The mouse cursor changes depending on whether I click or not. EDIT3: I experience black screens both when playing games and when using other apps like WOW and FFXIV.
