  • Have you tried a BIOS update? I had an issue with my screen and thought I needed repair but it turns out some hardware issues are linked to the BIOS. These are the instructions steam support gave me, just on the off chance they help you:

    To update to that BIOS you will need to opt into the ‘Main’ OS update channel:\

    • Turn on Developer settings (steam button > settings > system > ‘Enable Developer Mode’)
    • Turn on ‘Show Advanced update Channels’ in developer settings (steam button > settings > developer settings)
    • Set Deck to ‘Main’ in OS Update Channel (steam button > settings > system)
    • Select Apply under ‘Software Updates’ above and then select the ‘Restart’ once it is done.
    • Once the Deck restarts and has loaded to the OS, unplug the external monitor to test if the Deck’s internal screen is now displaying correctly.
