I currently have an open ticket with steam support and they recommended battery storage mode also. Battery Storage mode *seems* to have fixed my issue so far. 48 hours with no crashes, but I can't say for sure as it was only happening occasionally. I'm still going to keep my ticket with support open for another day or two to see if it crashes again.

Arkham City has a lot of crashes and the one game they say that doesn't work Ghostbusters original, works perfectly fine

So far so good actually … I was playing Resident Evil Village and it starts freezing I tried to set other protons but no success… I tried second option and it looks like a success

Yes this happens on every attempt to play Forza 4 and also a free game from Steam Store. Iv'e tried everything from changing Micro SD Card to resetting the system back to factory settings nothing seems to work I had the Steam deck for four days

I think my steam deck is broken lol one time it crashed before it could even finish the boot animation. It keeps on crashing each 5 minutes usually and I have even factory reset it nothing is working.

Switching to Battery storage mode didn't resolve the crashes. Tried Proton versions with no TDP limit, still same crashes. Even tried switching to Old Fan control as Steam support suggested, verified/playable games are still crashing. Also tried flashing Steam Deck recovery image but again still crashing. Update : Just got a Bios update F7A0110, so far no crashes all day, looks like it's fixed.

Thank you for the tips. i am trying them in order and will get back with my results after a few sessions of rdr2

Great video mate, I was starting to worry thinking there might be something wrong with my Deck but I installed a different version of Proton GE and disabled TDP and it looks like it is fixed, I’ll give it a more extensive test tomorrow, hopefully it will continue to work, again thanks a lot for the info!

I'm having horrible issues with prototype 2 crashing crashing crashing not impressed I even factory reseted the whole thing and it still crashes and now it has a steam Cloud error and it won't boot the game it stays in a never-ending boot loop saying steam Cloud error over and over again I'm not impressed I never had any problems until prototype 2

Fantastic intro on the problem, recently ran into constant freezing much like the one in the beginning, much like when im playing palworld. It wasnt a problem until it started doing it on Yakuza 4 (which doesnt autosave) and i was pisssssed lol Thanks for helping

This happens to me at least every 30 minutes, even with just using google chrome with one tab open

This comment section is full of people with the the same issue as me and no solution. Like holy damn, I’m sure if the device works it’s awesome but it seems like there’s SO MANY busted decks out there. SO MANY people like me who paid $500 for a faulty device and now have to Wade thru weeks of tech support just to get permission to send it for repair. God damn man. I wanted to love it, but now I literally hate the steam deck and will avoid giving valve money for the rest of my life. GoG for me now I guess. What a scam

Mine has issues booting with an sdcard, it gets stuck checking the sdcard and won't boot until the sdcard is pulled out/put back in, factory restore won't fix it either

Actually, most of your crashes are down to running out of RAM and the Deck only having by default, a 1gb paging file. This is a simple fix, making the paging file larger. Google and you'll find it's around 6 lines of code in Konsole. Good luck y'all.

Nice Guide, thank you

*Yes mostly Rdr2 and thank you for your help*

У меня Врэкфест так крашится после некоторого времени игры. Особенно, когда заряд батареи ниже 50% или совсем маленький остаётся.

Been having this issue with elden ring, the tdp limit solve this thanks

Scam deck have similar problem while playing war thunder despite WT being only game that I have this issues with it’s still so annoying

Try setting your TDP to 10 watts (11-13 is fine) and your scaling filter to FSR with a sharpness of 3, it fixed my issue and I had 3 days straight with no crashes

You don't need proton for every game red dead runs fine without it

Anytime I try to download sack boy it messes up my steam deck every other game that I download is fine it's only sackboy that's causing me an issue

for me it is a game by game bases. some games freeze after about 10 to15 mins while other can last up to 45 mins and beyond. Don't know exactly but, i think it is more of a game issue than a steam deck issue (please correct me if I'm wrong) EDIT: I have Re-Faced (as i heard it was called) my steam deck which I believe is the recovery method in this video

I got a question why does it need to be that bios specifically

I have a steam deck and sometimes high demanding game crashes but I'm okay with it lol it's a handheld low end PC handheld not a ultra graphic tier gaming handheld

Has anyone found a fix to The Sims 4 locking the system up?

Best bet is to submit a ticket to steam and just rma it. I have the same problem with the freezing and crashing and it seems to be an issue with a power module, so hardware failure.

Alot of crashing is also due to controller layout corruption and there is kinda no fix for it when you use more heavy layouts with radial menu''s

The last way don't even want to show up it keeps bypassing

The only video that actually helped me. Thank you

For how long do I wait for it to turn on by itself

What car is that?

Having a big issue with fh5 sadly and can't really get it to run properly without crashing issues

Also try turn off remote play worked for me 🙂🙏🙏🙏🙏

Proton, perhaps installing Windows would deliver greater stability, I just wanted to play Borderlands 3 in peace and I can't, Steam Deck is having none of it. To think I could have bought a PS5 or XBOX with the money, I could be playing Borderlands 3 without having the system crash at random. To add insult to injury the best Steam Deck costs more than a PS5.

This video is misinformation. These are random maintenance steps that aren't related to the problem showcased in the video. You shouldn't be messing with these settings if you don't know what they do.

Нормально, нормально

The steam deck is a piece of junk I ended up throwing it against the wall and smashing it up

You should increase the speed of your video to x1.25 before you post it

This is why Sony rules

Useless

Everyone talking shit about steam deck and they have a Nintendo switch😂at least my sons steam deck doesn’t have games that are 15+ years old being sold for normal price my sons steam deck with a external hard drive plays GTA, RDR2, no mans sky, like all of the assassins creed, Sleeping dogs, hitman, postal 2 and probably 25 others. And they all run flawlessly at 60FPS. I personally use the ROG but my fiancée has a steam deck for when we travel on planes and long car rides and she absolutely adores it. I got both of them the 1TB oLED tho. So I can’t speak for lower models. But as far as I know this is the first time my sons has crashed and it was because he skipped 3-4 updates as soon as it was done he’s back playing it. So this video wasn’t even necessary for our situation. Anyone who said they broke there’s or threw it away are spoiled little brats who don’t deserve what they have because if you paid for it you wouldn’t break it. That’s not what adults do. the full price which if I remember correctly was around $700 for the highest model. I spent $1500ish on my fiancées special edition $699 on my sons oLED and around $499 for my nephews last Christmas and I haven’t heard any of them say it sucks. Only reason I don’t have a steam deck is because I have a Asus ROG laptop. And a secondary gaming phone which is also made by Asus where I can play games while on a long shift at work (I work as a scrub so I sometimes have to stay upwards of 28 hours at a time and sleep in the hospital in between surgeries) and I couldn’t ask for a better set up. Other than my PC but as an adult I don’t have time to sit around and play on a console. And my son plays football and is in college so he doesn’t have much time to sit around a console and my fiancée only wanted hers for when we travel. So I rate steam deck 8/10 only reason it’s 8 is because of the bad battery life. (Which was fixed with a cooling fan and a battery pack) But steam deck delivered exactly what they said they would a handheld pc that can run games at 60FPS. That it does. And runs AAA+ games flawlessly. My son runs gta online without any dip or lag. Best part about it is you can run games flawlessly in offline mode too. Plus the fact you can use it as a computer my son uses it to write his essays when we aren’t home or won’t be for a few days. And he’s studying for a degree in aerospace engineering with a minor computer science. So it’s pretty important he gets it done and he 100% trusts his steam deck to not mess up while connected to just the cars Wi-Fi.
