How does it run on the live usb?
Has fastboot and secure boot been enabled in the bios?
If so turn them off

same no difference. but somehow I'm able to use LXQT right now. Can I disable blur background in LXQT? Holy crap, got a poup installation failed by LxQT while I was working with usb stick. I'm going into depression now 
Vacuum cleaners can blow air? First Iâve heard of it lol

Yes, it can. I also use it to dry my hair.
It sounds like you have a hardware issue,
Are you dual booting windows, if so how does that preform

Seems like you are right, the same problem I'm experiencing in LXQT that I experienced in KDE Dragonzed. Once I log in, the screen goes blank except for the cursor. I can only move my cursor. But waiting for a huge long time some time screen shows up and sometimes I've to reboot again and again 
I'm using proprietary drivers right now.
I'm not dual-booting windows. Three years ago I had only windows installed. That worked fine but one of my friends made fun of me for using windows, so I removed windows for good, I'll never turn to that ever again. I'll not use windows. I install only one Linux distro at a time on my whole SSD.

Please, no pictures from terminal.
Just use garuda-update.

yeah, did that nothing happened.
I uninstalled LXQT as well. I'm only feeling betrayed by my system and soon I'll accept my fate it seems. I'm giving up now.
Hello everyone again. I took a good sleep and came back. After going through all those issues, I finally decided to give try to KDE dragonized again. Guess what surprise, it again got installed without any issue (using opensource drivers). It booted properly and everything became normal. Finally, I was happy and satisfied with all my efforts. But soon all my happiness shattered as soon as I ran garuda-update. After garuda update it again started showing me previous problem of black screen after login.
Extremely enraged I took my laptop (HP Pavilion 15-p097tx 15.6-inch Laptop (Core i5 4210U Nvidia GeForce 830M 2GB DDR3 Graphics), Aqua Blue) and installed garuda KDE dragonized by replacing ubutnu 22.04 (Which showed issues, weirdly magnified login screen).
To surprise it got installed with proprietary drivers. Installation was smooth. And it took only one try.
Now KDE is running smoothly beyond my imagination. I became surprized and thought to take a look at its garuda-inxi. It gave me shock when I found the bogomips: 19156 which is even less than my destkop bogomips:25542
So, I'm making conclusion that bogomips is not the problem. Problem must be with the drivers. Correct me if I'm wrong
here is the garuda-inxi for my laptop

You might be running into issues with a kernel update. Perhaps there is a bug or some other issue that your hardware cannot handleâyou will have to wait for it to be fixed upstream before continuing to update the Zen kernel if that is the case. Try a few different kernels to see if you have better luck.
After you run the full update with garuda update, install a new kernel and headers. The LTS kernel is generally considered a good place to start:
sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers
Then reboot. On the Grub menu, choose advanced options and select your new kernel to boot into.
