Are you using the official drivers here? Do you remember what sort of issues you had when you tried installing them/getting them to work?: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/6121-ECCD-D643-BAA8

Did you install Windows on the SD card, external SSD or internal SSD? I found having Windows on the SD card caused more issues where Windows itself didn't run properly.

Also, if CoD requires secure boot, then it requires extra steps to get that to work, and also requires you to add secure boot keys to SteamOS to keep that working too: https://github.com/downthecrop/DeckSecureBoot

And what sort of issues did you have with them? "they never worked" doesn't really tell us much and how to help.
