PROBLEMS: Windows 11 randomly crashing just prior to login screen and sometimes on Wake-Up - Shows black screen and no response.
Windows and Hardware Specs
Edition Windows 11 Pro

Hello everyone,
Thank you for a great forum. This is my first post, so please forgive me if I miss anything out, but I will do my utmost to provide as much info as possible to help you to assist me.
I have build the above spec pc and installed Windows 11 Pro. Additionally, I also kept my old Microsoft keyboard, mouse and 2 hdds (3tb seagate and 500gb crucial ssd).
Most of the time my PC works fine. I never have any issues such as crashes whilst it's in use. However, once every 5-10 reboots, Windows loads up to the point where it's supposed to show the login screen, but instead I'm shown a black screen and I can't do anything other than to manually reset the PC. The other issue is that once every 5-10 times when I put the pc to sleep, it doesn't wake-up. Again I'm faced with a black screen and I can't do anything other than to manually reset the PC.
One other problem I have noticed is that some websites are showing corrupt banners and or video, like this one here:
As part of my diagnosis and a process of elimination, I have done the following already:-
My suspicion is that the problem is with corrupt or incompatible drivers of the integrated video card, but I've already tried factory-resetting and reinstalling the drivers, but this has not helped at all I can't seem to fix it, so I'm hoping an expert can give me any tips.
Thanks for your help in advance.

As part of my diagnosis and a process of elimination, I have done the following already:-
- Removed all old devices and hard drives.
- Changed HDMI/Display cables.
- Updated Windows
- Updated AMD video card drivers via either MSI website or AMD's website.
- Updated MSI BIOS to latest version
My suspicion is that the problem is with corrupt or incompatible drivers of the integrated video card, but I've already tried factory-resetting and reinstalling the drivers, but this has not helped at all I can't seem to fix it, so I'm hoping an expert can give me any tips.
