as soon as the Nvidia drivers are installed, I keep having specific and short freezes in Windows, especially when I have just restarted my system. The first freeze occurs when I go into the display settings.(you know, right-click display settings..) Other freezes occurs on like starting Discord or Spotify.

Any ideas on how to fix this please?

Thanks.
 
Check the mouse, make sure the sensor is clean and not on a reflective surface.

Make sure bitlocker is not active and that your drive wasnt encrypted with it, then disable TPM.
 
Thanks for the reply.

I have tried different mice but with no joy. I don't use bitlocker but TPM is enabled. Can I disable TPM with windows 11 installed?
 
Would be nice to know what hardware you have, easier to diagnose.

Is your bios up to date?
 
Yes all up to date I have even tried different bios versions to see If that would fix the issue but no joy
Chipset drivers are also up to date? Which OS, Win10 or 11?
 
Newest chipset drivers and on windows 11. I have tried windows 10 also and It's the same on there. Only happens as soon as I install the Nvidia drivers old ones and the latest

Restarted? Possibly gpu faulty too...
 
Have you tried different USB ports? I prefer USB2.0 ports for keyboards and mice, no matter the platform.
 
If a short mouse freezes, have you tried a tall mouse? :D
Sorry couldn't resist. :oops:

Yes tried UBB2/USB3 ports with no joy. I could try and borrow a friends GPU to install and see if It's still the same
