Vanguard issues results in BSOD
I ran in to a problem when trying to play valorant, i can start the game normally even queue, but after a few minutes of having the game open an error message "VAN IOMMU: RESTRICTION" "An IOMMU restriction has been applied, however a system restart is required to complete initialization. I have tried multiple times to restart but when i start after this error i get BSOD. I have tried alot of different things even changed my CPU to see if that was the problem which didnt help. I have TPM enabled, I have enabled my secure boot and my bios mode is UEFO. I have enabled IOMMU in my bios aswell even followed valorants official guide on "Vanguard-Restrictions" and ofc also have Core isolation on. My windows and my bios is both updated yester day and i can not figure out a way to fix my problem? If anyone could please respond with any ideas or a solution much appriate it

About a week or 2 ago
and you didnt try to play after ?
Have not touched valorant since
I tried alot of stuff back then even changed my cpu to an upgrade and updated everything didnt do anything for me
But figured i would wait a bit and then come back to it
