Playing older, less intense 3D games leads to black or colored squares covering the screen after a short time. This occurs across several titles. Updated drivers, BIOS, and other software are all installed. The fur-mark works without issues, though occasional tearing may happen. No black screen box appears. Stress testing on the CPU appears normal. The machine is a Dell XPS 15 9500 DXDIAG (link provided).

Have you considered using DDU to remove your GPU drivers and then install the newest versions?

I’m just sharing what I have. I’d consider reaching out to Dell, but they probably won’t be able to help right away and might need a long call.
