Yeah, You could also try a clean install of Windows 11 instead of the upgrade, as that often resolves leftover performance issues. Good luck!

You could also try reseating your RAM and graphics card, as a loose connection there can often cause a blank screen like that. Hope that helps.

Yeah, and if that doesn't work, have you tried using the official Media Creation Tool to force the upgrade instead?

Same here. Yeah, and double-check that your BIOS is fully updated too—some older versions block the TPM from being recognized properly.
