"Hey guys, just got back from a friend's crib and his mining rig is dead after the latest Windows 11 update. He's running a custom rig with some high-end GTX 3080s and AMD Ryzen 9s, so it's not like it's some low-power system. Anyone else hear about this or experiencing the same issue?"

"Dude, I just got hit with this update last night and my mining rig started spitting out errors left and right. It seems like the new power management settings are causing some of the older GPUs to throttle hard. Anyone else experiencing this? Got any workarounds?"
"Dude, I'm experiencing the same issue with my rig, and it's been a total nightmare. It seems like the update is freaking out with AMD GPUs, which makes sense since they're the most popular mining choice. Has anyone noticed any issues with their Nvidia rigs too?"
"Dude, I experienced the same issue with my rig. Apparently, the update is messing with the power management and causing the system to overheat. Resetting the power settings fixed it for me, but I'm sure there are some more in-depth fixes out there."
"Dude, I just had my rig melt down too after the latest update. I think it's because of the new power management settings they introduced - my GPU's were maxing out to cool down, causing a ton of heat damage. Has anyone else got any ideas on how to fix this?"
"Y'all, I got hit with the same issue. Apparently, it's due to Microsoft's new security feature targeting cryptocurrency mining malware, but it's flagging legit mining rigs as well. Anyone have a fix or a way to whitelist their mining software?"
