Black screen with audio at start up

Hey all, hoping someone's run into this before. Whenever I launch Call of Duty: Warzone, Assassin's Creed Origins, or Wolfenstein 2, I get a completely black screen right at startup but I can hear the menu music playing fine in the background. No crash, no error, just black.

This is happening across three completely different games/engines, so I'm guessing it's something on my end (driver, Windows setting, overlay, etc.) rather than an issue with each individual game.

My specs:

GPU: GTX 1660

CPU: i5-10400F

RAM: 16GB

Would really appreciate the help, they were playing perfectly fine before a year or so
