so i did sort of a retrospective of what i had to game on before i had my GPU and when i pulled it out, i booted windows but bitlocker asked my for my key. i knew this was normal because its kinda a big change. so i put in my key and my drivers loaded fine. so when i was done i put my PGU back in and it asked for the key again. like i said, was expected. so i did and my nvidia drivers loaded and everything was fine. I did a normal restart AND CHANGED NOTHING... but when it booted, it still asked for my key. I was confused so i put in my key, got into windows, then rebooted again. all of the 3 normal restarts, it still asked for the key. As a temporary fix, i just disabled it and now we're fine. I would like to know what happened if anyone knows, just comment. I'll probably enable it again if i know the problem.

Not sure about you but I think my 7 year old CPU still rips

If you suspended bitlocker asking for the key just un-suspend it. That's the usual advice in this situation, turn it off and on again.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
