System Freeze Caused by ARC Arc140T iGPU Forcibly Overriding dGPU Direct Mode During Boot

After updating to the latest driver (6989), the system automatically switches display output from discrete GPU direct mode to the integrated GPU (Arc A140T). This hot-switch triggers a persistent system freeze upon reaching the desktop. The issue is consistently reproducible and can only be temporarily resolved by forcing hibernation (closing the laptop lid) followed by wake-up. Rolling back to driver version 6881 confirmed resolution, indicating a regression in the new driver release. System Configuration type:Lenovo Yoga pro16 aura 2025 CPU: Intel Core Ultra7 255H iGPU: Intel Arc A140T dGPU: NVIDIA RTX 5060 laptop(driver version:580.97)OS: Windows 11 24H2 (26100.4946) Request Release hotfix for driver 6989 Disable forced display takeover during boot handshake Publish known issues advisory for version 6989

Hi @hangmujun,

 

Thank you for posting here in our community. To effectively diagnose and address the issue you're experiencing, I kindly ask you to provide detailed responses to the following questions. This information will help us isolate the problem and determine the most appropriate course of action.  

  

  • Please provide the SSU log report and share it here so I can review your system's configuration. 
  • Did you perform a clean installation of driver version 6989, or was it an update over the existing driver? Have you previously performed a clean installation of the graphics driver, before using either an older or the latest version? 
  • Have you checked the Windows Event Viewer for any error logs or warnings that occur around the time of the system freeze? 

 

Note: The generic Intel driver provides users with the latest and greatest feature enhancements and bug fixes that computer manufacturers (OEMs) might not have customized yet. OEM drivers are handpicked and include customized features and solutions to platform-specific needs. Installing this Intel generic graphics driver will overwrite your handpicked OEM graphics driver. Users can check for matching OEM driver versions at OEM websites. For more information on how the installation of this driver may impact your OEM customizations, see this article.

  

I look forward to your response and am committed to resolving your issue promptly. 

  

Regards,

Thanks for your reply.
Regarding the questions,I did performed a clean installation of the driver.However,I come across to an error when using installaion app,which error code was -5,indicating I had no permission performing such a operation.So I used DDU to uninstall drivers totally.Finally I resolved the error and sucessfully installed the older driver.
When it comes to Windows Event Viewer,I checked,but sorry,I couldn't understand what happened and could't figure out which error cause the freeze.So I enclose all the event data,as well as the SSU log.Hopefully they may help.
My English is bad,sorry.

感谢您的回复。
关于问题,我确实执行了驱动程序的全新安装。但是,我在使用安装应用程序时遇到了一个错误,错误代码是 -5,表明我没有权限执行此类作。所以我使用 DDU 完全卸载了驱动程序。最后我解决了错误并成功安装了旧驱动程序。
当谈到 Windows 事件查看器时,我检查了,但抱歉,我无法理解发生了什么,也无法弄清楚是哪个错误导致冻结。所以我把所有的事件数据以及 SSU 日志都附上了。希望他们能有所帮助。
我的英语很糟糕,对不起。
