Ive messed around with Elden ring resolution settings and its not working on the deck now. 
I had it plugged into dock and it was working great, I thought id try a higher resolution. Tried 1920x1080P. Now when it boots up, it just shows a white screen and hangs. Ive tried reverting it to original resolution and the default setting, it then just hangs after loading.
Tried different proton versions, and verifying the game cache but still no luck.
Dont know what to do, dont know if a reinstall will work.

Dual Boot done.. very simple and gives me a little more flexibility.

I saw your post when you posted on the 16th, I've not switched on the Deck like a week before i went to Japan and i went to Japan on March 27th. So that was at least a month ago. I just turned it on now, 57% battery.
I am not sure what percentage it was, but it won't be 100%, probably in the 70's.

I did valves test, and it was losing 1.5% every hour. I've since done there reset process thing, and will have a look this week if I get time to see if it improved things. One thing I will say is that it wouldn't charge more than 93% before, but was reporting fully charged. /facepalm.

Same question. I'm actually part of the win10 steamdeck group on facebook, but haven't actually done it yet LOL. Love this background photo, that's awesome.
Would love to get mine dual booted as I want to run some win only apps on it, and use it as a portable lappy

I used a guide from Deck Wizard:

The only difference is I didn't re-build my deck form scratch, I used gParted to shrink the SSD partition down to give me space (I have a 512gb Deck so made a 80gb Windows partition).
Works well, and the dual boot menu makes it easy to switch between OS as required.
Windows isn't perfect, and I think I'll use SteamOS 90% of the time, just wanted windows for those few non-compatible games.

I've been playing Forza 5 on Windows.. plays well but took me a while to get the controller working properly. I tried several options and settle don Steam Deck Tools as the best solution for this.
Although having Windows is cool, and opens up more options, I MUCH prefer SteamOS. it's just smoother, nicer on the eye, and just works (as you would expect)..
