Steam games keep crashing.
So i have a lenovo loq gaming laptop and I decided to dual boot arch linux on it, but whenever i went onto windows to boot up a game that i think are 3d they just crash the moment i open them for example the finals, postal 2, schedule 1 when i load a world and more. Games like hollow knight and terraria still work though. I reinstalled windows, reinstalled steam with all my games, turned on secure boot but these games are still crashing? PS: I also deleted and reinstalled my drivers. Can someone pls help me?

Step one when asking for tech help is to provide your specs and system details.

Install CPU-z[www.cpuid.com] and run the validation. Then post the results link here so people can see what your hardware is and some of the configurations.

its a laptop

go to the mfg site, and get latest correct drivers and update bios
start here and put in the model number
https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en

and get the nvidia driver for the mobile 4050
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/257134/

with laptops, it could be throttling while gaming thats causing the crashes
correct chipset/mobo drivers should help, but if its still doing it, do what you can to prevent the laptop from throttling
keep it fully charged and plugged n while gaming
and get a laptop cooler
the vent sucker fans work best since they use the laptops existing cooling and help it cool better

It is running hot at nearly it's max temperature. I'd suggest also using some caned air / duster to blow out the fan vents of any dust build up.

More likely the issue is probably the games may be using the iGPU instead of the RTX 4050 dGPU and are crashing due to either attempting to use a graphics feature the iGPU doesn't have or more likely crashing due to it only having 128MB allocated.

I'd concur with making sure you've gotten all of the chipset and peripheral drivers from the Lenovo support site; and the Nvidia App and latest Nvidia GeForce GameReady drivers from Nvidia's support site.

Then make sure you've configured windows to use the dGPU as your primary GPU by setting the windows display settings to use the "High Performance" graphics; and in the Nvidia App setting the preferred GPU to be your RTX 4050.

EDIT: Also, depending on the laptops configuration you may also need to go into device manager for the display adapters power settings and enable Nvidia Optimus.

So I have done all instructions in both comments but am still having trouble, I have a suspicion that when I partitioned my ssd storage for the dual boot it deleted some useful tools because I had to use 3rd party application to partition
