A custom one, using one of the Bloom wallpapers, but custom accent 
colours and custom mode (dark windows plus light apps) but none of the 
high-contrast options.

Probably not the exact same as before, since before I realised dwm was 
having problems, I had ended-up with black background and reset things

Yes, but ...

for the two days that I had nbfc installed, there were at least 15 
critical errors per minute from nbfcservice.exe in reliability monitor, 
my reliability went off a cliff from 10 days to 0. however those 
critical errors weren't noticeable.

then after I did notice occasional hangs/resets of dwm, I removed nbfc, 
speedfan and hwmonitor, critical errors show in the logs from dwm.exe 
and systemsetings.exe the following day from lenovovantageaddinshost.exe 
and background task host, powertoys awake

Nothing obvious, but I haven't looked that hard yet

I updated to the latest WHQL drivers yesterday (Iris Xe v32.0.101.6734) 
history says I was previously on 31.0.101.5085

seems like .6737 was released between me installing .6734 and now, I 
don't normally allow  the intel gfx setting app to install, but this 
time I forgot to say "no", I'll probably wipe the driver and do a clean 
install of the driver from scratch.

No critical errors so far today, but reliability monitor starts a new 
day at 6:00am, it's only 7:30am now, so perhaps not likely the problem 
has gone away.
