How were you able to reinstall the graphics driver if there was no display? Did you connect it to an external monitor?

I think gpu problem

Nice dwarf fortress mod bro

What igpu does it have? Windows likes to mess with the drivers whenever it has a update. You'll can change it in the settings

Mux switch on later models are intended to address this. This seems to be an issue with integrated graphics. Are you by chance switching from plug to battery power when this happens?

Damn what the heck. I’ve been seeing a lot of ppl with this issue recently

I think this is either software or hardware issue

software: update all display drivers igpu, dgpu and monitor also reset display driver settings to defaults.
hardware: maybe the display port cable in the lcd is damage or the connector of display is not proper. If this happens while in you integrated graphics then i suspect the RAM is faulty as igpu uses ram so try to swap the ram modules and test if the issue goes away. One of the ram module might be faulty.

also, try to cmos reset then update bios to latest availble for your device and be patient while update screen may go blank for some time just wait till laptop reboots.

that sometimes happens when i use my laptop mobile, just shut the lid, drive home, plug it in, open the lid and bang, disco. restart helps tho.

File for return

Correct, if it's in the screenshot, it's not the monitor.

Yes, if a glitch or artifact appears in a screenshot, the issue is likely due to your PC, specifically the graphics card or the software rendering the image, rather than the monitor. Screenshots capture exactly what the PC is processing and displaying, so any visual anomalies in the screenshot indicate problems on the PC side. If the monitor were the issue, you wouldn't see the glitch in the screenshot.

which sounds about right to me, just leaving this up in case anyone else wants to comment.

You can use the snipping tool 

Shift + Windows+ S .. next time use google

What happened to chatgpt,Google?

windows + prtscr

You can print screen and paste it somewhere

Hi! Understand that most of the time camera issues are easily fixed, but I am at a lost for this. I have reinstalled the latest Lenovo camera drivers from their official website, reset the app and my computer.

Whenever I google for errors, the resources online show the camera with the line drawn through it but mine appears to be a different icon. I have a small, slid able camera shutter on it but I have made sure that it is not obstructing the camera, and even so if it was it should just show a black screen.

There are no errors being thrown by the software as well, in fact the picture above is what I get what I press the shutter button in the native Camera app. Really curious and at a lost, since I need the camera to attend Zoom classes.

Any input will be greatly appreciated thank you!

Omg i've been battling with this for over a month now! Thank you so much!

DUDE. TYSM!!!! My camera’s been like this for MONTHS and I was so lost on what to do like you had explained, but the built in slider??? I don’t know how I never noticed it either 😭, again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Why is the is happening

any updates op? hope everything is fine

Well I don't see any cracks in the lcd panel. But best thing to do is to get a standalone monitor and plug it in to the laptop. If the picture is bad to the external monitor too, then it's probably a gpu problem. If the picture to the external monitor is fine, it's probably an lcd problem.

my guess would be a bad cable or liquid that ran down the lower part of the screen and created shorts

Loose LCD cable, either on the mobo end, or on the LCD end...or your LCD just called it quits and had a partial failure. Not really much you can do - call support on this one.

sounds dumb but you can try giving a hit and sometimes it fixes the problem

I would say it’s probably an lcd fault. It bears a passing resemblance to the Surface Pro 4 flickergate issue. Hook it up to an external monitor and see if it persists there

Could be an easy fix software issue. Or worse. Screen or GPU on the verge of death. Maybe a connector is loose in the gpu or screen. But dont get your hopes up. I would go to a repair centre if i were you or return the model.

this is what happens when you intall tiktok on you pc

Your screen is currently updating to 3D TV technology. Don't worry, it'll pass and you'll have a 3D capable laptop when it's done.

that seems like gpu or the cable
