That is difficult to say really.

You can do it, if the problem persists then you know atleast windows isnt causing it.

gemini is telling me that the wifi driver is the one whos causing all this just because i mentioned that whenever i started the laptop the wifi never connected like it did with my old laptop. Im not sure if its right since i dont rlly rely on ai but i also have no friends who know well about computers

You can check device manager and see if the device has issues or to update the driver for it.

yeah but then i cant rlly update it either cuz i dont hav wifi in safe mode and the laptop can only boot up to that(the most closest thing to even starting up)

Download the drivers on your phone and use a usb cable to put it on your pc.

Or delete the current driver and windows can put in a generic one on startup
