Hi smart
I haven't welcomed you to the forum yet, so I'll do that now. Welcome! :D
As to your question, the correct sentence is "What do you want to talk about?"
After the word "want" you need either a noun or to+verb. You should not use the "ing-form" after the word to in most cases.
My extra tip for you: Because we try to write correct English here, you should also write the word you correctly. ;)

Thank you, smart! You're a very fast learner. ;) :D
By the way, you also shouldn't call me "sir" because I'm not a man. You can call me Amy or Yankee ...... or ma'am, if you prefer being formal. :lol:
