For those having issues, could you also include an export of your System Information? This tool will gather information about your computer (no personal information aside from your username) as maybe there’s some hardware in common causing the problem.

To do so, open System Information and Save it somewhere (it’ll be an .nfo file), then attach to the thread. image. Don’t do “Export” as it only does the active window.
