Minecraft Launcher start-up of Minecraft Bedrock Edition causing instability and erratic laptop display (flashing off/on & jumping)

Minecraft Launcher 2.5.2 version starting up Minecraft Bedrock Edition is totally unstable. I tried uninstalling Bedrock and Launcher, then re-installing and get same result. Can’t create new world or open existing world without this issue.

Environment

Windows 11, version 25H2 (as of 10-16-2025), with 20 Quality updates since then.

More info on this issue. My problem is that the Java edition works fine, but the Bedrock version causes instability in the display – it is NOT crashing my laptop, just goes into some type of infinite loop of trying to create a new world, getting about so far, starting over again, and repeating this forever. Sometimes while this is happening, my laptop display will just flash a random pattern, and stay mostly dark until I kill the Minecraft process. I actually got a new world created once after several re-installs of the game code in Bedrock, running it from Xbox – but the next time I tried, it repeated the same issue again and again. I have another laptop with the same Windows 11 level, with the same Minecraft codes installed, and it works fine. Both HP, but where all is working ok actually has 16G memory, while the one with the problem has 32G memory (and no other apps running but Minecraft) - so doesn’t appear to be a memory issue.
