    the installer completely shit itself and the screen went black, could not recover from it

    I don’t think that this is the standard experience people have. I’ve installed Windows 11 more than a few times for family members and for my gaming pc, and while I find Windows insufferably annoying, black screens were not part of the experience.

    weird issues with my rgb and fan control software

    That’s the motherboard manufacturers, that’s not on Windows.

    All motherboard manufacturer software plain sucks. MSI, Asus, Asrock, Gigabyte … the lot of them. Just don’t install that garbage.

      Well i’ve experienced the black screen during install on a vm install before as well, so i feel like it has to be a more common issue atleast. I do agree with the rgb/fan software just being pretty ass in general, but i was also having issues with openrgb just not starting at boot randomly, but it worked when launched normally, so that does seem more like a windows issue to me, though i will say it has been working fine for a while now. In my vm install i’ve also had a windows update stopping my usb dac from working. Had to revert the update to get it working again, after finding a weird chatgpt article online about what was causing it lol.
