AMD external GPU w6800 rendered useless by Monterey 12.3
Please be advised. I can no longer use my 2nd monitor, nor external GPU as playback is unusable. Confirmed by disconnecting the GPU and using internal AMD 5800 card and all played smoothly.

update 12.3.1 released. Try it.
 
A useful piece of information for all those experiencing issues with 12.3 - and taking those to the Monterey Support Forum - is that macOS Monterey 12.3 no-longer ships with Python runtime apis.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-12_3-release-notes

So this might explain why certain software apps no-longer work.

Apple recommended installing Python 3.

So far, it would appear Python runtimes have not been restored. Perhaps the originals are left untouched if only an Update is performed?

Happy to be corrected. :thumbup:

Thanks for heads up.

I upgraded both Mac mini 2012 and HP 840G3 from Big Sur to Monterey 12.3. All apps work except gibMacOS which requires Python 2 so I installed Python 2.

Strangely, apps like WhatsApp, Github Desktop and VS Code crashed on HP 9470m as shown below. So, I revert HP 9470m to Monterey 12.2.1

Rundown of changes in macOS Monterey 12.3:
 
First failure in 6 or 7 years. Tried update and full installer. Boots to about 1/3 Apple logo thermometer, and just hangs. Maybe its the Gods telling me to buy a M1 Studio.. or just a good excuse... :)
bump/update to this: I just now tried with 12.3.1, and managed to get all the way through the install. It seems to me that 12.3.1 fixed the issue, at least for me. Now I have to decide if I want to cancel my Studio order... :cool:
 
Please post your question(s) as a standalone thread in the Monterey Desktop Support forum section. Violators will have their post removed.
