I own a machine with those specifications. It runs mostly for browsing and watching videos. Occasionally, after turning it on, the display stays black briefly—about ten seconds—before returning to normal. After that, everything works again. I also noticed a similar issue once where the screen pulsed in waves instead of going completely black. The monitor stayed on even after resetting. Another time, when launching the system, some startup apps failed to start properly. It seems these glitches happen randomly. My computer has been used for about seven years with light usage. Any advice or insights would be appreciated!

System updates may be necessary, and drivers could become problematic after prolonged use.

It seems like you're thinking the problem could be related to the graphics card rather than the display.
