Aurora R16, Nvidia RTX 4080 Super, hardware test warning message

I recently received a warning message from the Nvidia RTX 4080 Super video card in my Alienware R16 desktop with an Intel i9 processor during hardware tests. Additionally, Windows 24H2 reinstalled itself on my PC tonight, even though it was already installed. I'm considering a factory reset to Windows 23h2. There were no other error messages, just a suggestion to rerun the tests for a potential 3D card warning, citing unexpected results. This could be a false warning related to the new Windows 11 build, but I'm not certain. All my Dell drivers and the October BIOS update are current. Previously, I had switched from the official Nvidia drivers to the OEM drivers because my new LG OLED C4 model TV would only display 60Hz at 4K resolution with an HDMI cable, instead of 144Hz. I had to adjust the color from 10 bps to 8 bps since the HDMI cable couldn't output correctly. Although I thought this issue wasn't related to the 3D card, I'm not entirely sure. Neither the OEM nor the gaming drivers from Nvidia could achieve more than 60Hz at 4K on my new 55-inch TV set.

Don't know where the error was indicated. Run a pre-boot test and run a complete hardware test to ensure it passes.

Pre-boot diagnostics.
