System:
Windows 11
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
EVGA 2080Ti
16GB ram
Corsair 1000watt PSU
NVME's: C:67%, D: 100%, E: 100%

So recently installed BF6 but when I enabled secure boot all hell broke loose. Started getting blue screens, system extremely unstable and eventual failed to boot. Gave up trying and reinstalled Windows.

That did seem to help things in terms of booting into desktop but PC not the same anymore. No artifacts as such but every now and then black screen as if the GPU is resting as I can hear the windows "chime" then business as usual. Thought it might be overheating but can touch back plate with zero issues. When working GPU never went over 76 degrees under load which is still well within its parameters. On desktop stable, runs PCmark with no issues or artifacting. As soon as I try play game (again no artifacts) game crashes to DT.

Have not run MATS and MODS to check memory just yet, was hoping someone could advise.
 
Just reset to Bios default...
Reseating in diff slot, replug power connector.

What did you alter (hardware) since that problem.
BSOD error code?

Nope it is a known issue with BF6 and secureboot
 
Download driver 580.88, uninstall GPU driver with DDU in safe mode, disconnect from the internet, normal boot and install driver.

You have Secure boot on before you installed windows and have the latest mobo driver installed?

Did all that, even replaced CMOS battery. zero changes on hardware side. Was thinking of just formatting C: with Bios set in secure boot mode enabled off, default settings.

Multiple error codes:
- Critical Process died
- 0xc0000001

Let me give it a bash. Was thinking exactly that, Don’t think I ever had enabled secure boot. Let try another install.

I still need to go through all that rigmarole, but my bootdrive wont validate because my mobo is still on legacy mode. So will probably end up formatting that as well. Feelsbadman.
 
Ok, so played around. Formatted and reinstalled Win 11 with secure boot enabled in Bios. "Touch wood"but it seems to have done the trick. Thanks for all the help so far.

UPDATE: lol, COD just crashed.
