Whole PC freezes when tabbing out of VALORANT
I got this new Windows 11 PC and it runs valorant perfectly, however, when I alt tab out of the game, it has a chance to freeze my whole PC, I can only hear sounds and move my cursor around but that's about it. The only way to get my PC back is to force shut it down which is VERY inconvenient considering the fact that this issue ONLY applies to valorant and no other game. Not even more demanding games like fortnite.
I tried multiple fixes from the internet including turning off Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling, disabling full screen optimizations for valorant, and updating drivers.
None of them worked. Can anyone here please help me fix this issue?

u might need to update your bios this same thing happened to me with fortnite and i updated my bios and it fixed it
Do i have to do that manually? I don't have any notification telling me to update

Okay, I'll try to do so. Thanks.
Never happened with windows 10, windows 11 is pain
