in Windows 11

The computer works fine for a while, but sometimes the screen goes to black with some white glitched stripes on the top, the audio also gets distorted (almost like white noise), and it only works if I restart it with the power button, in some cases I can work or stream for hours and nothing bad happens, but at other times it happens after one hour of streaming, any idea how to fix it?

    Did you have those issues before the Windows 11 upgrade? Do you ever see the artifacts in the Acer splash screen or while in the BIOS? You might try reinstalling the Intel graphics drivers and utilities...

    I had the same problem in Windows 10, my brother has the same laptop model but in windows 10 and has the same problem, We've both seen at least once that the desktop screen icons have Made a kind of vibratory movement, But we haven't verified it in the BIOS.

    We had the idea to reinstall the video drivers, However, we do not understand very well which one we should download.

    We must download the one that says "vga driver (UMA)" or the one that says "vga driver utility)?

    Also we both have Intel Iris Xe graphics.

    Hi @Fern117


    You can try to reinstall the display drivers to check if that makes any difference.

    NOTE: Make sure to reboot the laptop after uninstalling the driver.


    If that doesn't work then you can try to do a reset to check if that makes any difference.

    You want the Intel version of both the VGA drivers and the VGA Utility. The NVIDIA drivers are for the Aspire A515-56G models.
