I had garuda dragonized installed on my system for 3months and all of sudden one day I noticed when I booted and logged in, I could see only blank screen with my cursor. I tried to boot many times but same problem occurred. I became fed up and I uninstalled drgonized. Finally I made my choice to use wayfire. But once I tried to install it won't let me install with proprietary drivers so I chose open-source. Once I booted, I tried to connect to the network but it started showing me weird behaviours. I window opened and when I tried to close then it showed no response. When I clicked on cancel button, it opened a window instead and it kept happing. Again I shutdown my system and tried to reinstall. Finally after 3-4 tries my network was connected and I fully installed wayfire on my system but I soon I realised it's freezing and hanging. I became worried and I started crying and went to sleep. Next day again I tried to install xfce instead but in xfce also same issue is happening. I can't connect to network and some window keeps popping and I'm unable to close those. What do I do now?? I also can't upload garuda-inxi because I'm using another system to post this query on this forum.
NO problems here on much hardware, old, new, weak.
Maybe hardware problem, laptop? clean the heat pipe.
But it's pointless to keep guessing if it's already worked once.
While installing I get small error cannot create /run/initrams and then gets further process by itself . I'm witnessing this on all the OS. Currently my LXQT installation process is in progress, I will take picture of garuda-inxi using my phone and then I'll post it here, will that be helpful?
I followed your advice and I used my vacuum cleaner to clean the internal of my PC. I hope all pipes have been cleaned. but I don't see any pipes. I only have RAM, Graphic Card, cpu, cpu fan, power supply and lots of wires.
How do I Update BIOS. Surprisingly, the best performance I ever had was on garuda KDE dragonized gaming edition and for 3 months I didn’t observe any issue, lags or freezing, it was butter smooth. I have lots of RAM and I use SSD

If you were happy with your KDE installation, then use KDE. The issue you encountered sounds like there was probably a bug in an update you took for your graphics card, or something like that. It sounds kind of like this thread, with a similar graphics card as well: Got nailed by an Update, Need Nvidia Driver
It might have been helpful to create the forum post when you first couldn’t get your installation to boot, to see if anyone could help you get your installation fixed. What you did instead seems somewhat dramatic:
If that is the OS you were happy with, try installing again. Start with open source drivers if you have to, and get the LTS kernel installed to see if it helps with the network issue you are having. Open a new thread if you need help getting your network card working, or the proprietary graphics drivers installed.
It’s a little late now, but you can cause irreparable electrostatic damage to your computer by cleaning out the fans and dust vents with a normal vacuum cleaner. You are lucky you didn’t brick your CPU. It is better to use a can of compressed air.
