Hi,

Please do try these troubleshooting steps that may help.
- First is to connect an external monitor and observe if the same problem will persist or not.
- If the external monitor will work normally that could mean it's the problem with the built in display.
- But if the same problem will result with the external monitor that could mean it's the GPU that is getting faulty.
- Start by doing a clean install of the graphics driver.
- Go to Device Manager and uninstall the graphics driver.
- Next is to open Programs and Features then uninstall anything related to the graphics card.
- Once completely uninstalled, download and install the latest driver.
- Reboot the laptop once the latest driver has been installed.
- After the reboot do test it again and see if the same problem will persist or not.
- Lastly, do also a clean install of the Windows.
