For more context, this is my first time trying to open Olympus, I am running on Windows 11, and it closes itself after about a minute of running. I have also tried on two different networks, so I don't think it is an internet issue. Lastly, I see the words "Main Menu" every once in a while, but only when I move my mouse over things. I attached an image of what my screen looks like even if it is just a black screen.
If anyone has some advice about fixing this, I would love some help!

For some users, Olympus freezes on a white or black screen on startup for unknown reasons. You can attempt the following fixes:
-If you have a third party antivirus, check if it's blocking/quarantining Olympus.
-Restart your PC.
-Update your graphics drivers.
-Delete and reinstall Olympus.
If none of those work, no fix for this is currently known and you have to use one of the following alternate installation methods:
-On Windows, the old graphical Everest installer is available at https://gamebanana.com/dl/430740.
-Mons (https://github.com/coloursofnoise/mons/) is a command line based cross-platform installer that is similarly powerful to Olympus. However, it requires some base familiarity with the command line.
-Alternatively, you can use the manual installation method described under "Cross-platform manual installation" at https://everestapi.github.io/.

from you being able to see "Main menu" for a split second it sounds like you are

updating your graphics drivers will likely solve your issue

Hmm, tried to update drivers, but it still isn't working. It told me that they are already fully updated even when I tried the search windows update option
Gonna try and go for the old everest installer, tried to redownload Olympus and it still didn't work.

Update for people possibly looking at this later. I updated everything within Armoury Crate and it ended up working out of nowhere. I also have a Zephyrus G14 which can tend to have driver issues, so if someone else has that laptop be aware.

there was a software package directly on the amd website which would install up-to-date drivers for you, but at least it works
