OMEN by HP 875-1000 Obelisk Desktop PC (5MU99AV)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My wife and I both own OMEN Obelisk desktops, and hers upgraded to Windows 11 a couple months ago. It started having issues where it would go to a grey screen and only keep one or two of her active windows available, and things like the task manager and ctrl+alt+del menus are inaccessible. Has anyone else with an Obelisk 875-1000 series upgrading to Windows 11 or is hers a fluke? Trying to decide whether it's time to upgrade to a different computer myself.

Sorry, but you might get answers that won't help you more than that..

Every setup is different, just because it's going to work well for one doesn't mean it will for another.
some will tell you that no problems, with windows 11, we can even say that it works better..
I had started making a list, and for some, it's a disaster...
There is a problem with your computer, it may not directly be the cause of Windows 11, difficult to diagnose, unless there is a hardware problem

Do the test just in case, it will already be a done thing
otherwise, you can continue to use windows 10 for quite some time, if your computer is correct, may not be necessary, change it immediately to windows 11
I installed windows 11 my computer, is compatible, it works, but to date, I do not find anything extraordinary compared to windows 10
