robjosie, please don't power-post. You can edit your last post (if no-one has replied yet) instead of posting new ones in quick succession.
Your screenshots look like Manjaro, not Garuda.
Garuda appears to be a niche distro, very new (2 releases in the last few months, nothing before that) and probably not quite stable yet. Expect hiccups, and make sure to report them to the Garuda forum, where they can do much more good than here.
If you are new to Linux I do not recommend any Arch-based distribution, and certainly not a beta.
Oh, and always follow the installation instructions from the distro's website.

robjosie, please use the Edit button instead of amassing posts without waiting for replies.
Do NOT power post.
Of the 20 posts in this thread, 15 are yours and I have lost the topic completely.

Please share the solution - you know, it's a two-way street, others (those that do search before they post) might benefit.
Then mark it SOLVED yourself (see my signature).
