The issue seems to be related to how Steam handles game windows. It appears the games are running but not properly displayed—only audio is heard without visuals. When maximized, pressing ALT+F4 or ALT+TAB brings you back to the previous workbench or task, similar to minimizing. This behavior might be due to Steam's window management settings interfering with display rendering.

oh so this is a laptop? so it works fine but if you open a game the screen goes black? and it has the same issue if you output via hdmi to a 2nd display? it would be hard to say its defective fully being it works at normal use, can you tell me the CPU GPU and Ram Percent usage at idle and with a game running during black screen

Sorry for the confusion earlier. English isn't my first language. The screen is transparent, not black—meaning the games run smoothly with audio and a clear display. For idle status: CPU usage ranges from 1% to 12%, depending on RAM; GPU usage is around 31% for NVIDIA 1050TI, 35%–60% for Intel graphics, and 2%–8% when the game is active.
