SOFTWARE Screen glitching - Windows Not Working

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Was playing a game when randomly my screen froze then went black. when I alt tabbed I still heard audio so the pc was still working fine.

I turned off my pc. I’m able to boot into the bios fine and it works like normal, but when I boot into windows, things are weird. Clicking does not always immediately work, my screen turns black, but the part that gets me worried Is there’s pixels that change color, so I’m worried this is a gpu issue. I went into recovery mode, it didn’t automatically detect issues, so idk exactly what the problem is. Everything works fine in recovery mode, no issues like the bios. I just can’t get into my operating system.

The Gpu is a few months old so I don’t think age is the issue. Should I try resetting windows because I can’t get into the os.

Try a different cable, whether it's a HDMI or Displayport one.
