    Blue screen with WIN32KSGD.SYS after Windows 11 'upgrade'

    I have figured out how I can make it crash every time, just by opening an Epicor screen and closing it. I've used that screen for years under Windows 7 and Windows 10. Work forced an update to Windows 11, which was fine until I started crashing regularly, then I tracked it to that screen. I...
