Recently installed a new CPU and been having issues with Win11 ever since. The system seems to be a bit non-responsive. When trying to close windows in file explorer as an example , they just wont close , can keep clicking as much as I want but it wont have it. Also when hitting Windows to shut the system down and clicking power , it does nothing when usually it gives you the options Shutdown , restart etc.

Could this be the CPU doing this, went from a 3900XT to a 5950x
 
Could be the cpu

Or Could be windows being a PITA
Few windows updates lately caused issues

I have 2 windows installed
One with everything
And one with bare essentials if I get an issue
I boot to the other one to see if the issue is replicated
Or not
That helps decide if it's software or hardware issue

Other options
Boot a live usb see if any problems
Either windows re
Or something like ubuntu
