Hello, I am new to Garuda Linux, and I cannot understand why this happens when auto installing the proprietary drivers.
So far, I have :
- Live booted with opensource drivers, in GRUB2 mode, and installed Garuda
- Done a Garuda update and rebooted
hello and welcome 
can you post please your garuda-inxi. Open the Terminal and type it in and copy paste in here as Preformatted text field </> sign or use 3 tiles ~ above and under it.
You mean as such?

Yes its right thank you
For your GPU its on Arch wiki website to use the sudo pacman -S nvidia-open-dkms
