Garuda freezes randomly

Hello.

Need help. Kinda new to Arch Linux (Garuda). My computer freezes randomly but I did notice that it happens most often when I video conference. Any help would be appreciated.

Without it, you will not receive any help from the Garuda team or your topic is likely to be closed without notice.

Before you open a new help request, read relevant sections of the Arch and Garuda wiki.
Thoroughly search your issue and any error messages in the forum and on the web.

Report everything you have already attempted to solve your problem.

I’ve written a guide just for you in the FAQ section.

It’s still a work in progress, but there’s lots of information to check out there for you.

Welcome to Garuda.
