New Hardware and OS Drops PPD Dramatically

[evotuc]

I've built many computers and never seen such a PPD drop. WUs are being turned out at the same rate as before, about 1-2 hours. Any thoughts?

Old System: ~8M PPD

Win 10
AM4 3700x
3090 ti

New System: ~1M PPD

Win 11
AM5 7900x3d
3090 ti

Also, a restart prompts FAH to re-add the graphics chip on CPU.

Are you 100% sure that your username and pass key are entered correctly?

Nope. I had forgotten the passkey. And right up goes the PPD. Strange.

Thank you!

With the huge PPD drop it was my first thought.

Good thing I was right, as I know pretty much nothing about Windows 11.

It happens quite often actually. People don't have to install F@H often, so they forget about the passkey and just fold.

off topic, but I am pretty pissed at MS on Win 11, and will probably back step most of my systems to Win 10. I have C# app that prints one form in landscape, It worked correctly in XP, Win 7 and 10, but Win 11 does not respect the landscape setting. But I also not really happy with Win 10 as well. Some systems are used in business by employees not interested in the nature of Windows, they just want to do their job. Every time a new feature installs, on reboot, they have all the stupid screens to try to trick you into something, like switching to email/phone login instead local account, preventing the apps set to automatically start on reboot from running until you jump through these hoops.
