foundry local spitting out garbage regardless of which model being used

So I am taking a summer class on agentic AI, and I am fairly new to Foundry Local. Our first assignment was to create our own simple AI chatbot using a video our professor made. The code runs on my professor's all-AMD desktop and my laptop, but not on my all-AMD desktop. Any help pointing me in the right direction to figure out why?
pc specs:
cpu: ryzen 7 9800x3d
gpu: RX 6800
32 gbs ddr5 6000MT/s

Start by reproducing the chatbot on the Ryzen 7 9800X3D/RX 6800 system and compare its output with the working AMD machines. Gather the model name, commands, runtime and device details, plus complete logs and the expected-versus-actual responses; done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming corrected chatbot output.
