have you update windows or your bios recently ?

@Stephane
Maybe windows did, would be possible. It wanted me to restart so yeah, probably

you will need adding boot kernel for acpi & MTRR

@Stephane
How can I do that?

for testing acpi
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DSDT

be careful more strings lines is added by microsoft

for MTRR
see cat /proc/mtrr ( i think it’s linked for video memory share with maybe your nvidia card )

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html?highlight=mtrr

for AER
try with option boot kernel
pci=nommconf
or pci=noaer

Too risky. I will now reinstall but a big thank you for all your effort, that really means a lot to me. As I knew that I would demolish my install I have all my important data on a second drive. I also learned a lot during this process so maybe I will be able to fix someones small problems too sometime :slight_smile: have a good day/night.

You can also try using this other parameter on the kernel line:

pci=nomsi,noaer and as a last resort, taking out the previous pcie_aspm=off

Good luck!
