You've just received a brand new Alienware X17 R1 and are facing problems loading games. The system freezes and you often need to end processes via Task Manager. Installing mods from certain servers forces the game to install them first, or changing display settings causes it to restart. Hand-editing the configuration files resolves the issue for those games. It seems there might be a conflict or a bug in Windows 11 that's affecting performance. Others have reported similar issues with GTR2, COD 4 MW, and COD MW2 on this updated machine.

Sicher, hier sind die Punkte zusammengefasst:
- Überprüfen Sie die neuesten Treiber.
- Stellen Sie sicher, dass der Prozessor nicht durch Hitze begrenzt wird.
- Vermeiden Sie direkte Änderungen an Win11, es ist frustrierend.
- Excel scheint die GPU zu 100 % zu belasten – das könnte Spiele beeinträchtigen.

I tried resetting the PC to its original settings and reinstalling the games, which resolved the problem. Then I switched to Open Shell because I didn’t like the appearance of Windows 10 or 11, but the issue returned. That’s unusual since on my previous laptop (ASUS ROG running Windows 10) Open Shell worked fine without conflicts. Now I have another problem that still needs solving—even after uninstalling Open Shell and cleaning the registry, the conflict persists. I’m considering another factory reset or further troubleshooting.
