I have installed Minecraft on a new PC setup (environment details provided) When I run the Java version 26.2 Snapshot 4, the game will run in a small window but freezes as soon as I enlarge the window to full-screen. This has happened with graphics API default, or Vulcan but not in OpenGL. Note that as per the Environment details, the graphics card is Gigabyte RX 9060.
When the game freezes, it is impossible to close, even with Task Manager.
I have run the latest Bedrock edition preview version successfully with no issues, so the graphics card appears to be otherwise working correctly, so far.
Environment
Graphics card: Gigabyte AMD RX Radeon 9060 XT, Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-Core Processor, (4.70 GHz) Installed RAM: 32.0 GB (31.1 GB usable), System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

I also checked the GPU temperature, found that GPU 0 is at 32 and GPU 1 is at 45 degrees. Both cores are showing signs of some activity. GPU 0 is having pulses of activity about every 5 to 6 seconds while GPU 1 is constant at about 3%. When doing this, I had the window extended but not fully filling the screen. In this configuration, on the title screen, the music cuts out intermittently.
Apologies, feel free to close this ticket. It was an issue with the PC setup (applications were using the CPU on board GPU). Now it’s working ok
Thanks for the report! Even though you consider this fixed on your side, we are still investigating it since it affect other users. Did you have the display cable plugged into the motherboard and not into the dedicated GPU? Because this is the condition under which we can reproduce this.
Yes, that was what happened (I have to admit) - the HDMI cable was plugged into the motherboard. Also the other GPU was enabled and I disabled it as part of the fix. (I did this first and then realised there was basically no graphics, before discovering I’d plugged in the HDMI cable incorrectly)
Thank you for your report!
