I have got a problem with my laptop (Lenovo LOQ 16APH8 82XUOO57MH) on every other boot.

Every single time I boot after shutting down my laptop using windows 11, the laptop tries to boot, the screen goes off and I can't press anything to change this.

If I then shut down the laptop using the power button, and restart it, it boots up fine.

I have noticed that on that first boot every time I can not go to the boot selector screen, the second boot always works in regards to that.

I think this has happened because of a driver update, because I did not have this issue at first.

I have searched online for potential things to troubleshoot, but I could not find anything that seemed to help me.

 

Also on the first boot it does NOT show a loading circle, but on second boot it does.

 

I would gladly appreciate if anyone wants to help, because this is an annoying issue.

You could check if there is a firmware update available in Lenovo Vantage, if yes, install it, maybe it fixes it.

Maybe try resetting the BIOS to factory settings, sometimes that fixes things.
