Hello everyone, here's my issue :

My modded Switch Oled sometimes crashes randomly during gameplay. Then I have this screen (see picture) :

And when I press the POWER button, I have a black screen and this message :

"A fatal error occurred when running Fusée. Failed to read GPT : 0x00004e18 Press POWER to reboot."

And when I try to reboot again by pressing the POWER button, I have kind of a loop where Atmosphere fail to launch, and still gives me the same black screen "fatal error" message. I have to try several times in order for atmosphere to launch and then to have the "Nintendo Switch logo". I've even tried the 12 seconds pressing the POWER button to force turning it off, but it doesn't always work and I have to try several times before my Switch finally launch.

Here are some elements to consider :
* Until now, these crashes happened only when I was playing with the Switch DOCKED, never happened when playing HANDHELD (at least, until now...)
* It happens to me (quiet often) to suspend my game play by pressing the Home button while the game software is running (generally I go check my photo album)
* The majority of time, my Switch and games work fine, those crashes are quiet random and don't happen with a specific game.
* Like displayed in the picture, my Switch OLED have been modded with the version firmware 19.0.1 (Atmosphere 1.8.0).

The switch haven't been modded by myself and I'm not really advanced in the modding/hacking process, I'm still trying to understand it and document myself. So feel free to ask for more relevent elements, I will try to provide them as possible as I can. Also please be patient with me.

(If a thread treating this problem already exists, don't hesitate to orient me towards it)

Thanks in advance :)
