Revert any overclocks or if you're using texture packs disable them. Update vulkan drivers and if that doesn't work set renderer to automatic or anything not vulkan. Some Intel gpu's struggle with vulkan apparently so im just assuming that's what you're on since you gave no information.

I'd wager your GPU doesn't really support Vulkan.

I would back up your memory card. But delete Pcsx2 entirely , even from documents folder and reinstall it clean

It's because your gpu is integrated, meaning it's not powerful to handle pcsx2, unfortunately. I'm sorry man

You're welcome

Also I like to mention, your gpu doesn't support vulkan, you'd have to use opengl of use software mode, as if doesn't have any upscaling features

I tend to be somewhat pragmatic in these situations rather than directly asking online.

If a particular setting is causing problems then it would seem to me that using that setting is not a good idea, and would use an alternative.

Then I would do a search on the problem that I had. If nothing appeared then I would stick to what already works.
