5.10.2 Freezing on one computer

Updated to latest 5.10.2 kernel and Manajro Gnome update and now my computer freezes. Keybaord, mouse all dead. Have to use reset button. Tried selecting 5.4 at boot and now that one lost wifi.
How to check what is causing it? Was running 5.10 RC 7 I believe before and it was fine.

[SOLVED] Ignore it now happens on kernel 5.9. Not an kernel issue.

Please, start live ISO and post

inxi -Fxxxza --no-host

I am attempting to solve it. Another computer would not even boot into 5.10.2 and it turned out nvidia drivers 4.55 were not installed. Installed linux5.10-nvidia4.555xxx driver and now it boots. The nvidia driver was not installed as well on this machine so I installed it. I think this might solve it. Give me a few days to test it. Here is the output from the command line after nvidia installed anyway but just wait because I might have solved it. Will post solved if it works after a few days. You can igonre the output for now.

So maybe ignore this output for now.

Thanks for your help anyway
