Hello.
When installing a new driver for ie graphic card, soundcard, some windows updates and other drivers, after the reboot, windows boots normal, to lockscreen, I type my pincode, and then the screen goes black with only the mousepointer to be seen. Windows is running in the background, and CTRL-ALT-DEL brings the lockscreen to front, to change user, reboot aso. Even in safe mode, windows goes black after typing my pin-code. When it happens, I have to restore my C-drive (with Acronis) to before this new driver update, and then all is ok again as long as I don't update drivers or Windows 11.
All this started with a faulty driver update of my HP Laser-printer, but I idiot does not have a backup from BEFORE the HP-update, only after, som I can't go back to before updating the HP-driver. All drivers are downloaded from the manufactor, Nvidia, HP ect.

Can anybody give a clue to what is going on? It must have something to do in Windows driver-core I think because it also affect Safe Mode.
