Screen crashes on installation

Hi. I'm trying to install Arch Linux on my desktop after laptop installation. Installation on laptop was successful and I really liked it so I'm trying to install it on my desktop too. But on installation screen crashes some how. I think is resolution probelm but I'm not sure and I don't have a idea how to solve this problem. How can I fix this problem? I can't even read what i'm typing.

Re: Screen crashes on installation

What cpu and gpu do you have on that desktop? What is max resolution of your display? How do you have connected that display?

Re: Screen crashes on installation

My desktop's spec is this
CPU:AMD 2700x
GPU:Nvidia 1660ti
Max resolution: 2560x1080
Screen Connection: DP, HDMI(I'm using DP but this problem can caused by DP so I tried HDMI but having same problem)
I thought only terminal screen crashed because resolution but KDE(SDDM) crashes too..

It was driver problem. It was first time I install linux to my desktop so I made a mistake. Cheers
