So I've had this computer for less than a month, and I'm already experiencing issues.

For one when exiting sleep mode the screen usually stays blue with white text, and it takes a long time for me to actually be able to type my password to login. I also frequently have errors when I first turn it back on. I haven't written all of them down, but I know I've gotten the two folllowing: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION and VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL. A couple times these errors have led to Windows updating, but usually not.

And I don't particularly use this laptop that much, I got it primarily for work with the intention of using it as a portable personal computer occasionally. I've downloaded some stuff but I don't think it's enough to affect how it runs when it's still so new. Does anyone know what's causing this or how to fix it? Should I look into returning or exchanging it?

About the first error I am not very sure what exactly it is, but most likely it is not your machine's fault. About the second one VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL make sure intel and nvidia graphics drivers are up to date. Update the nvidia driver to version 388.00 from nvidia's website.
