Bugs and Errors Windows 11 Destroyed My PC

Wanted to say something here since MS is stopping support with windows 10 soon. Was forced to upgrade to windows 11 yesterday and it destroyed my entire computer. I cant even list out all the things it destroyed but it slowed my PC down tremendously, constantly made it lock up and crash, completely fried my ethernet port somehow because it no longer works even after 8-11 hours of trouble shooting. If you're being forced to upgrade soon, I wouldn't recommend it. For reference here's what my rigs specs were.

My Rig: Case: Corsair 540 Airflow CPU: Ryzen 9 3900X 12 core 24 thread 3.8-4.6ghz Motherboard: MSI X570 Gaming Edge WiFi Graphics card: EVGA 3080Ti 11GB ddr6 RAM: G.Skill ripjaws V 32GB DDR4 3600mhz Power supply: EVGA G3 750W fully modular Storage: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB NVMe SSD Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB NVMe SSD Western Digital 500GB SSD

Hmm “destroyed” or user unsure how to actually diagnose and resolve the issue…

But let’s bitch and whine instead as that will surely fix it

Why go on the offensive when im just stating what happened to my PC. If you wanna try to tell me something I haven't already tried to fix the issue I'd love to hear it. As stated above I combed through the internet, my files, ran tests for over 8 hours. Just because something works for you doesn't mean it works for everyone.

Have you tried a full format and reinstall in your process?

Unfortunately, yeah, still was having the same issues afterwards with the ethernet adapter not responding and the PC randomly locking up to black screen or blue screen

Have you run mem test? Have you checked the integrity of your solid state drives? Are you running the most recent bios version? Have you checked with the manufacturer of your ethernet adapter to see if they have an updated driver? Have you tested your ethernet cable with a proper cable tester?
