I'm not sure this computer or radio issue. Flex 8600 PGXL,TGXL,AGXL all current firmware. Yesterday it was a one my Net control days so I woke up at 0700 and tuned up to 40m chatted for about 2 hours. 0900 tuned to 20M worked a DX station and check into another net at 11:00 AM ran my net on 14.300 the at 1200 left the radio on and departed for appt. I got back at 1630 and fixed dinner and checked into 80M net then at 9PM I tuned to 40M to FreeDV and I found that DAX had failed. I can't tell how long it had failed. To get it back I had to restart the radio.

    When I start up SSDR, I have it set that both DAX and CAT automatically start at the same time. That worked great with win 10 however with win 11, I have to click on both the DAX icon and CAT icon in the system tray ( located at the bottom of the monitor) to get DAX and CAT to work normally. Both still load when SSDR starts, but I still have to open each window for each to function normally. I have ran AFSK RTTY contests w/ DAX for more than 12 hours w/o issue but I would have issues with both if I do not open and close their windows individually after SSDR starts up with win 11.

    As far as I can tell , you did not try to use DAX until the end of your 12 hour time period but I am saying if I personally did not open the DAX window after SSDR loaded on win 11 I would have seen a problem right away. Hope this helps.
