  2. I made sure to follow every step to the letter on my Steamdeck OLED, I get the dualboot screen and can load into Steam OS no problem. When I choose Windows though it just sits on a black screen? Been like it for almost 10 minutes now

  3. What happens when the Steam Deck gets an update?

    I have windows and steam deck installed, it boots into windows when I start it, 'minus + power' and I can select steam os.
    But after a Steam Deck update, steam os disappears from the menu and I have to use 'plus + power' like in this video to access steam os,
    and fix it with this line: "sudo efibootmgr -c -L "SteamOS" -l "EFIsteamossteamcl.efi" -d /dev/nvme0n1p1 -b0003"

    I was thinking of clover or other options to avoid this necessary fix, is (this video) an option, or will I still have to do this fix?

  4. I’m having an issue where everything was working fine, however now windows keeps resetting display settings and doesn’t allow me to connect to WiFi even using ethernet does not work when using a dock.

  6. I'm having problems trying to partition my drive. I have a 1TB OLED and done all the previous steps right. when I want to partition 256gb and format to NTFS, it takes forever and the operation stays at 0%

  7. One thing to tell people: the new Windows 11 24H2 update is corrupting the system files (whether dual-boot or sole Windows 11) this includes BSOD on the same partition SSD

    I had to reimage multiple times and just did a Windows 10 (up to date patches) instead and its stable without crashes

  8. Hi, I could not seem to get my audio driver to work on my OLED in Windows (mine is 10), even though I have installed all 3 drivers. I even tried to install the LCD one, but no success. Any input for this? NB: I can hear audio using wired earphone and bluetooth but not speaker output

  9. I have SteamOS on my 1TB internal and Windows 11 on my 512GB MicroSD. Do I follow the steps to install rEFInd on SteamOS, set SteamOS as the primary and default and then select Windows (SD) to allow a dual boot?

  10. Thank you for making this! Just had a quick question. If/when valve includes an official dual boot and a future update, will this be easy to take off and use the official one? Would it just involve formatting and redownloading SteamOS?

  11. This seems like a good tutorial but I need an idea here. Is there any way to make it so that windows is secondary but to always boot into steamos first? I honestly see no point to mess with dual booting if it invalidates the main part of the steam deck I enjoy, which is the ability to quickly press the power button and wake into steamos and play whatever game I left out on.

  12. Amazing Video! I have a 512GB Oled. I was wondering how I can split a 1tb Micro SD between both OS’s. I just want to install Black ops 6 & Fortnite on Windows, and all my other games on Steam OS. Is it possible to share a MicroSD between both OS’s?

  13. Awesome. I've been dual booting since your original video and didn't know there was a rEFInd GUI now. Every time there is a major SteamOS update I have to refer back to your "bring dual boot back to life video" to get it working again, it seems like one of these new steps might be helpful to me!

  14. Hey man, great job on the video. I'm not sure whether the Stable 3.6 update messed it up as I did have windows and everything installed on on the beta 3.6 before the proper stable update released. The Method of sharing the NTFS card doesn't seem to be visible on SteamOS anymore, and I'm unable to mount and open the sd card, getting an error of "Bad fs, Bad superblock Etc". However the sd card does still work on my windows partition, and doesn't show any errors when scanning it. Is there a way to fix this without having to wipe the card? and has this happened to you?
    Thanks 🙂
