Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

its a common kenovo prebuilt pc that has never been tampered besides giving it a bit more ram
i had problems with so many games that it would be a struggle to list them all, so i limit it to 5:
Okay, I don't have any of those games. But looking at Anno 1404 for example, lots of reports on ProtonDB say to run DX9.
One Finger Death Punch has only a single recent report, which decribes problems exclusive to the Deck, so idk.
Stacklands' recent reports look pretty much exclusively positive, so honestly, something about your system might be borked.
What troubleshooting steps did you take? Clearly something is wrong.
Edit:
You know, I always like to help, but you don't provide much info.
thank you for the help, i do appreciate it, but i have been through the same steps so much that i have more or less given up
i have been through the trenches way too many times
Sometimes, you just get the bad luck of the draw, and your combination of hardware and software throws tantrums like this.
It certainly happens
right now im trying to get back into using windows (cause gaming and streaming and stuff, which was what caused the post to begin with)
and like the previous times i tried to, it just gives me a sour taste in my mouth (my brain wont shut up about it, its loud like this)
so at this point im still kinda willing to listen to anything you have to say, i can give you any info you want really, we can take this to dms (are dms a thing here? idk lol)
I can't promise getting you the results you want, but I can always try and see if there is something I might be able to help with.
DMs are indeed a thing, though they're basically just comments only you and I can see. Well, and the instance admins.
