It doesn't provide the Secure Boot feature and won't let me reinstall the system because Secure Boot blocks the flash drive.
Help!!!
(FIXED)

hello im wondering if it would be a bad decision to trade my 2tb steam deck lcd for a laptop or a desktop being that the deck is my only gaming device at the moment i primarily use it docked i even ended up downloading windows 11 just because i needed to be able to do more than steam os allowed and now i want something stronger since im always playing at low settings and still only 45 fps at times at the moment i have two offers but my main concern is would i regret it i read that the alienware is way stronger but the processor lacks required architecture to run dx12 so im worried i might shoot myself in the foot trading for it and not be able to play future games should i keep the steam deck should i trade for one of the mentioned below i dont know much about pc so it all seems like alot idk and i dont want to regret it ive loved the deck since released

alienware 15r3

i7 7820hk

gtx 1080 max q

16gb ram

other option

acer nitro v

i5 10300h

gtx1650

8gb ram

I followed an older guide to set this up, and it disconnects constantly. I’m using Proton 7-37 currently, and I’m wondering if I should use a different version. Any advice on loading this better would be appreciated!!

Made this 'cause, to be honest, Steam's on-screen keyboard implementation is pretty poor, but I really like the concept itself. It's laggy and buggy in games (desktop one is just okay)... I've never got full performance from anything that is running as a game overlay, Steam Overlay (via Chromium Embedded Framework) is not an exception. I play FFXIV a lot and just wanted to type without fighting it, so I made my own OSK for the Steam Controller.

It reads the controller trackpads directly, draws a fast keyboard over screen, and works alongside Steam Input so your configs don't break.

A few notes:

• Windows only for now. I'm on an Nvidia setup playing on a 4K TV, and SteamOS is not yet ready, so I haven't done Linux yet. Maybe CachyOS again someday... I hope so.
• It was made with AI agents, mostly to see how far that workflow can go. They tested it in a silly way lol. It was a lot of fun, but if that's not for you, no worries, you don't have to use it. I hope someone will do this better than I did, so feel free to fork it if you have any ideas.
• I haven't tested this with other configurations; to be honest, I haven't tested it anywhere other than what I'm currently using. I'm lazy af, but if any issues come up, I'll probably fix everything.
• It's a fork of a fork… At first, I wanted to rewrite this in Rust, but it doesn't make sense. So I left it in Python.

Honestly I hope Valve fixes their own keyboard so this project isn't needed anymore. But until then, here's what I use, in case anyone else is dealing with the same issues.

Hey so i wondering what should I use to make my steam deck safe when im downloading games from steamrip and anker games . I know about ublock but is there anything else I should use to ?

For those that have dual booted there steam deck, was it worth the time and effort. How long have you had it, does it run well?

recently, I've heard something about Windows for gaming or windows game mode just like an OS installed on the latest MSI claw. Could the OS also be installed on steamdeck?? any luck on it????

Hi!

before i installed windows in the internal ssd i tried in a micro sd card which was bad and a external nvme that worked perfectly but i wanted to be able to charge the steam deck without it being connected to a dock station so i decided to install in the internal ssd.

I almost never used steamOS except for emulation.

any tips and tricks of things i should do now?

Recently, I've hit 70 - 74°C on Ghost of tsusima DC and Shadow of war while connected to power cable (66 - 72° while on battery,no power attached) ,is it still safe for long terms?

How to increase the VRAM on SD LCD that has windows 11 on it? I've set the RMA on BIOS to 4 gigs,but in all games I've played, it shows only 1 gigs

I wonder, could a game runs above 60 fps on SD LCD variant??? yea,I know that the screen only runs at 60fps max, just wondering
