So, I decided to blow away that system and rebuild. Its newish and I want to try and track down what the issue is so it was not a big deal to rebuild. I wanted to remove anything else I installed as a factor.
This is a fresh install from a USB stick of Windows 11 Pro (no Mods).
It is fully updated (Windows, Drivers, and Firmware)
The only thing I have installed is GameEX and LAV codecs from GameEx website.
Another thing I have noticed. The background does not show up on this system (I included an attachment). I checked the other Windows 11 system and it has the background. The picture I am attaching shows a black background (instead of the blue background that has the slight animation). This is the default theme. I have made no changes to GameEx after install.
There just seems to be something odd about this computer and the way it is interacting with the GameEx software.
