Yes. Bitlocker is only enabled on installation via a properly set up SYSPREPed drive. Just doing a regular install of Windows will NOT set it up and even those small system builders out there who use Sysprep can configure it to NOT enable Bitlocker. M$ is really pushing it hard on OEMs so...

Yeah but he imaged the drive and tried the image on totally different hardware. This appears to be a corrupted drive.

TIL. I had seen such stripes but didn't know the significance.

Video driver would be my guess.

Then I genuinely don't follow your question. Can you explain again?

Lenovos are on both ends of the spectrum. Thinkpads are great some of the best PCs made. IdeaPads are opposite the worst PCs made. Yogas are on the IdeaPad side of the scale, except for the few that are also branded as Thinkpad. Not the case with this one as it only a Yoga so it is an...

I'll also add that those Lenovos are stinking piles of crap. Constant trouble.

Part of the problem is the battery is not fully plugged in. I know because I have one on the bench right now with the same blinking light problem. You'll need to fully plug in the battery and then hit the battery reset button aka the novo button.

I've read this 3 times and I don't follow the question. You don't have to hit enter for the PIN. That is SOP with Windows and a normal function. If you have been hitting Enter by habit it was unnecessary, as it has NEVER been required. You just never realized it before now? Assuming that I...

**** I was born 1964. Thanks for making me feel old yet not as old as this geezer?

Wild guess. The end user forgot the username and password they had setup so now the program has locked them out?

Does this fusion app modify the login screen? I could see that happening if it was needed for the reader for the blind app. Such a thing could be tied to a user account as it might have options on who's account it is active on? Perhaps? Or do I not know what I speak off? LOL.

Drivers are global. I can't see how a user profile would affect them.

I'm betting that if you N&P and don't load the fusion software all your problems will go away.

I suspect that Fusion software is the whole cause and like many Windows software it probably didn't fully uninstall all of its drivers.

Also any clues in the Event logs. Often you'll see stuff crashing before the actual BSOD happens.

@britechguy what is the hardware on this? Mobo or System Make and model. Aftermarket Video card make and model? Windows 11 build number.

Can someone explain the NEED for this? What problem is it solving?

Oldsmobile gave me no warning that parts would still be available when I bought my first car in 1981 either. Adobe gave me no warnings that future versions of Windows would not run Photoshop.
