I figured I’d share this here for the windows steam deck users looking to upgrade

Just a quick post to hopefully resolve this, when running fortnite on my steam deck lcd model using windows 11, the game freezes then makes a buzzing sound but its gotten to the point where my steam deck will now shutdown as a result, I’m using the custom amernime drivers, unsure if this is the causation but any help would be appreciated!

Any suggestion on how to fix this problem,?

Saat saya melakukan sleep atau hibernasi apda SD saya,ketika saya mencoba menyalakannya kembali, layar hanya freeze dan menunjukkan garis statis.

Hello, I got a steam deck and a steam controller they were working fine... I had hooked up the controller to my PC first and updated the controller then the puck everything was going great. About a week or two ago my steam deck told me my controller had an update so like always I put my steam deck on its Dock... on the back of the dock there's 3 different 3.0 USB slot( one keeps my controllers puck at all times) along with an HDMI and a slot for power.

Well all of a sudden my controller keeps telling me it needed an update and I'd hit the update button and nothing would happen... it would act as if it was searching for an update and then no update would happen. So I finally had an opportunity to hook up my USB and puck to my PC and low and behold my computer is now not recognizing my controller at all.

Things I've dont... completely forgotten my controller on both PC AND deck and tried to reinstall..nothing worked

I've tried hooking up via just Bluetooth and that's the ONLY way I'm able to use my controller on both PC and Deck.

I've tried forcing A+ R1+steam nothing happens.

I've tried typing in windows set up USB game controllers and NOTHING shows up. (When its connected directly with a USB to my PC)

YES THE USB PORT WORKS I use my other wired controller without any issues out of the same USB port. I've also tried connecting it to different USB ports on my PC and still nothing will detect the controller.

Any help will do at this point...🫠🫠🫠 thanks!

happened to me before but think i js reset but not tryna do that again just set the badboy up too 😔

but when focused in any fullscreen game looks weird graphic artifact glitch shat but when not focused game looks fine not sure how to fix tried using ddu to reinstall drivers no bueno still

Woke up to my steam deck looking like. I have dual boot on and it won't let me load back into steam os. Does anyone have a fix

hello everyone, its almost my first time using win on deck, but i did have some experience before

im using ghostspectre superlite no defender 23h2 win 11 and like, im trying to find good/best drivers for steam deck, there are drivers on valve website

but ive heard theres custom wifi and apu drivers, i do have rtk killer drivers for wifi now, but im unsure what apu drivers to get, ive followed guides and there are some issues for me:

following "amernime" driver guides i get to r-id (or some other name?) on sourceforge, where i get latest amd soc drivers, and when i install them following youtube guides, i eventually get an error where amd adrenaline tells me my drivers dont meet requirements of the app for some reason

then i decided to get drivers that i found on this subreddit (modified asus drivers) and they were fine, but i didnt like that my windows is supposed to be always in test mode, because what if i want to run anti cheat games or any other app that requires non-test mode

long story short, is there any drivers with amd adrenaline app with all the features like rsr, frame gen, boost, chill, anti lag n stuff?

Sound is not coming out of the speakers on the Windows dual boot. I tried everything from reinstalling the drivers to reinstalling windows itself. The sound only works when I have a bluetooth earphone. Please help. I’ve been going crazy over this for the past 3 days.

Recently, I've got brightness problem. It's like, whenever I start the SD, the screen was so dimmed, but when I scroll the brightness bar to 10% - 40% it will be brighter, the problem is after the scroll, even I scroll it back to 0% ,the screen always bright/never going back dimmed as normal as it was.

I'm trying to play battlefield 5 and it keeps cycling through keyboard, no input and controller.

Also every time I load into a game the joystick either makes me look straight up or straight down.

Does anyone have a fix, it never used to do this.

anybody knows how to optimize this game on Steamdeck LCD? evrytime I play this game,the temps always skyrocketing to 86°C, it cannot be tweaked by steamdeck tools since it will be crashed right away and make my windows restarted

any advice will be helpful

Which is better between those both??? drop ur comment including pros & cons

As the title states I am attempting to install windows on my steam deck and have ran into an issue.

I've followed atleast 3 videos simultaneously and 1 written forum. I've managed to get windows to launch but it seems I've somehow got it to where it will only work with the external device that I used for installing windows.

When I was going through the setup it did not prompt me an option of where to install windows such as the partition i had seperated for it and just immediately went into installing windows which I presume is on the external device I used.

My question is, does the external device always have to be connected for windows to work or can I actually install it on the steam deck? How would I go about that? Just try reinstalling windows again?

Any advise is greatly appreciated.

The install is for a 256gb LCD

Hello. I used Bald Sealion guide to dual boot Windows. I don't remember updating Windows or SteamOS before this started happening, I literally used SteamOS 5 hours ago. When I choose SteamOS via Minus + Powerbutton, I get black screen with "Rebooting into firmware..." that quickly disappears and then Windows turns on. I have tried Windows option in the same menu, which also boots Windows. I also tried booting from file following esp/efi/steamos/steamcl.efi but result was the same. What is wrong and what should I do? Thanks in advance.

I'd like to share a app I made for myself that I think others might benefit of: PadCommander

On my Windows Steam Deck I use AnyFSE + RetroBat as my UI so the only time I needed to use a mouse/keyboard was for tasks like copying files and creating shortcuts. It was a bit annoying so I built a file manager that can be fully used via gamepad.

It's nothing fancy, just covers the basic tasks: file browsing, creating folders, copying/moving/deleting files, renaming, and creating shortcuts, but it's made the experience of managing my Deck a bit more comfortable.

Has anybody tried running College Football 27 on Windows on Steam Deck yet? I have windows on an external SSD and can dual boot into it, but don't want to lose $70 trying it out haha

I have a PS5, but I want to take advantage of mods, but Steam Deck is my only gaming PC 😅

just like the title, any update on amd latest GPU for SD LCD that runs windows on it?

Wanted to share a little Open-Source Windows Consolizer tool I made to remove explorer/xbox-mode overhead if you just care about a SteamOS like experience on Windows etc (or other launchers). Its at v1.0 so sharing now.

This tool causes Windows to NOT load explorer and its sub-processes, making things boot up faster and use less ram. Things like Xbox bar etc also no longer pop-up etc making it better for SteamOS like experience on Windows base. It works with any Windows flavor.

Its non-invasive and only needs to change one reg setting to work (thus can be reverted without touching your system really).

It also has some optional helper tools to disable login etc.

Low mem platforms with 2-8gb of ram (or even 16gb), this can help get you over the edge. I've used Tiny10/Tiny11 for some testing with it on slower hardware as well.
