It seems my videocard is causing issues lately

Bazzite
1

Hey all,
I had an installation of Bazzite for 9 months, and in the beginning, it was running fine.
But after a while, probably due to an installation of a program or drivers that broke the integrity of the OS, Bazzite was freezing frequently in desktop mode (games were running fine though).

Due to this problem, I installed a fresh copy of Bazzite, and the freezes are gone. :+1:
But now, the games are not able to run: when a game start, I’m able to set a few steps then it freezes and returns to the desktop. (Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, Witchspire and others).
I had a Kernel Panic situation the last time I’ve tried.

I ran a diagnose and this is the result:

System
System717×637 80.5 KB

Error
Error1512×1002 658 KB

What can I do? I’ve tried several Proton versions, Windows mode instead of Full screen, FSR4 on and off…

Ok: I’ve solved the graphic card issue just by resetting the mainboard bios (reset to optimal defaults) then switched off the iGPU, and that was it.
Now: the games are running great as well… :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I have to say: there’re so many related settings and potential conflics that it’s hard sometimes to search for the right solution.
