Hello,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

May I know what modifications have been made to your computer recently? For example, upgrading from Win10 to Win11?

Please refer to the link below to check if your computer meets the minimum requirements for installing Win11

Change power mode:

1. Right click on the Windows 11 Start menu and select "Power Options".

Update all drivers by visiting their manufacturer's website.

Keep Windows up-to-date. Settings>Windows Update>Check for Windows updates.

To disable unnecessary startup programs:

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager.
2. Go to the "Startup" tab.
3. Right click on any unnecessary programs and select "disable".

Hope this answer can help you well.
