The laptop display went dark unexpectedly during a game, even though it was powered on. This might indicate issues with either software or hardware, especially since you often use your laptop for gaming while charging.
Hi there, after the screen goes black and you restart, everything should function normally until you play again. In the Windows search bar, type 'Event Viewer' and go to Windows Logs > System. Look through the entries until you find the one with the timestamp of that last occurrence. You’re likely to see a report about your display driver issue—something like ‘your display driver has stopped responding and successfully recovered.’ It may appear several times in quick succession. Let me know what you discover.
It seems to require some maintenance. Hold the power button for at least 30 seconds before turning it back on. Additionally, think about wiping down the interior of the device—it looks dirty.
