I encounter these unusual visual glitches on my display occasionally, which persist briefly before returning to normal. They tend to appear within a single window and are always confined to one area. I’ve verified the GPU temperatures and performance, and everything seems functional except for minor thermal throttling during gaming. This is expected considering the limited resources of my Nvidia Quadro T500 mobile GPU, Lenovo P15s Gen2 11th i7-1185G7 with 48GB RAM and a WD Black SNX850X 2TB drive. It’s possible I might have been misled when purchasing this used unit for a reasonable price, and I’m concerned about potential issues. (Please refer to the attached image) Thank you.

I attribute the issue to a malfunctioning GPU, though it doesn't match the symptoms. Have you attempted to reinstall the GPU drivers?

I haven't updated it yet, but I recently thought about it. I plan to reinstall it now using this program.

I'm still working through it, unfortunately.

Reinstall the GPU driver by deleting it using ddu, possibly removing any remaining files. Also, inspect the cables—there might be a faulty display cable causing the issue.

The absolute Legend appeared to resolve the issue nicely, though there were definitely some mixed files from my previous GPU driver. Thank you for your help!
