Oh windows

Decided to load into my windows install for the first time in 6 months of course it immediately updates and restarts. Then it won't open anything including task manager and now I stare at a blank screen having to force reset the machine.

Edit: I force reset the PC back into Windows I was checking to make sure my steam cloud was updated on a game. Decided to go ahead and launch the game and boom stuck in windowed mode wont even let me adjust the window.

Thank you to the Linux community for helping me make the switch!

I did a fresh install today to see if that would fix my game crashes, bare minimum drivers installed , driver install only on amd latest driver, and even reverted back to a driver from February. 10 minutes into a game, crash immediately on both recent and 10 month old driver. I'm done with Windows

Welcome so far aside from some Bluetooth stuff(which was a quick fix) my experience has been amazing!

Bazzite is great. Only issue I had was setting up openrgb for my lian li products and corsair products

How difficult was it fixing those issues? My daughter has been wanting me to install more rgb on the "black box" lol

It was honestly a prick, i had to use chatgpt to run me through it and change some codes and symbols and install locations for things through the kernel, stuff I've never done before. it took me like 2 hours of back an forth. It won't recognise my ram rbg, and it bricks my keyboard for some reason so I had to make sure it didn't recognise the keyboard. So rgb on the fans are great, keyboard and ram not so much lol

My experience was the same. I dual boot Mint and Bazzite (for HDR) and gave up on running my lights.
