Even apps like Google Earth still won't load on here, despite reformatting, despite trying drivers from anywhere I could. On our company ThinkPads, (T16, X1), no problems.
But here's the question. Is it an Asus problem or something else? I have had several AMD boxes (including laptops) and they all seemed to have been working fine. Wheras I've also had bad luck with most of my HP laptops with the battery poofing up. My biggest beef with Lenovo is that swapped fn key, although occasionally they don't like it when I start pushing virtual machines to do more.
I'd be curious what causes Google Earth to not load. Crashes you can usually figure out with some diligence.
