Heya, hoping to pick a wise brain, wiser than me anyways (easily done ha!). Possibly a Bios or Windows setting, but im eyeing the motherboard at fault as tried a few fixes to no avail...
I've had the below ongoing issues for a while. The fixes so far are; new wifi/bluetooth card; playing advanced powerplans (PCI power etc); reinstall windows, new PSU. but none really helped (see gpu note).
So im now eyeing the motherboard at fault and possible replacement. Though if i did that i would probably be looking at a CPU/MB bundle which is getting pricy and might not even fix the issue 🙁 (if its bios or a window setting)
CPU: 3600 AMD
GPU: 6800 XT
MB: Gigabyte B550 AORUS ELITE
WiFi: TP-LINK AX3000
The issues are:
Bluetooth #1
Stops responding, thankfully mainly when not in use. Seems randomly not to work on bootup or after waking up from sleep, the icon disappears from windows bar and can only be fixed by disable/reenable in device manager.
Bluetooth #2?
Not 100% sure this is bluetooth or not, however when gaming with a controller it just stops working. A quick double alt tab fixes this one. Its like the game simply lost focus, as if it was running in windowed mode and there was a popup. However the mouse and keyboard keep working fine. Current theory is either mouse(razor)/keyboard(logictech) detects one of them going to sleep and has a nosy, but there no message or anything.
GPU - note: Resolved? as an AMD driver issue
Simply just crashes the AMD driver and gives me a black screen, waiting for driver recovery after 20-30s fixes this. I thought was my old PSU as it was almost maxed out, but happens on my new one too. might just be AMD drivers not liking my setup. I have a 2k monitor and a 4k TV and LOTS of Chrome tabs, maybe this is just confusing the driver? Was never an issue with an old Nvidia GPU i had with this MB. As mentioned in the note this appears resolved in the latest AMD driver update, but had been going on for almost a year! (touch wood)
