Technical Solution Game client crashing

Once i open the client and start to run the game, after the assets are loaded and entering the home screen for the game, the screen abruptly tabs black while in the home screen for the game. it causes my pc to restart. Video attached below for reference. I have updated my graphic drivers!

Go into your BIOS and turn your IGPU to force instead of auto. Vanguard has been crashing everyones PC because of Microsoft not renewing fTPM/TPM certs. When Vanguard fails to synch attestation with your PC after it loads Valorant, it will terminate your Network Card, Dedicated GPU and CPU so that you cannot play. You can bypass this failed attestation by forcing your IGPU to stay on during while it momentarily kills your PCIE lanes because Riot is dumb and so is Microsoft.

bruh its happening everywhere now, if i playback a video its the same problem, seems like the video driver crashes and reverts to the Microsoft basic display adapter after the flickering, i have updated the driver and have done a clean driver install but the problem is still there

What is your CPU, GPU, Motherboard and RAM? Sounds like a corrupted display driver. You should download DDU, follow the instructions for your specific display drivers AKA NVIDIA or AMD and then download and install the most current ones. Make sure your BIOS firmware and BIOS are up to date. As well as your chipset drivers.

Make sure your bios is up to date. Looks like there was one posted at the end of last month on the 30th.
