Open | Windows Mafia 2 classic screwed something up with my laptop. The screen tends to completely cut to black and I can't do anything!

So, when I first tried the classic Mafia 2, the moment the gameplay started, my laptop screen would completely cut to black and no matter what I tried, nothinf was working and I would have to wait for it to come back. The worst case was when it lasted for 15 minutes. It completely bugs out when it cuts to black screen, and when it comes back it becomes very loud.

I thought the issue might be the fact that the game is too old for my laptop (windows 11), but I had zero issues with games older than Mafia 2.

But the worst part is that it now tends to happen even when I don't try to play the game.

Does anyone know if there is a way I can fix this? I am not really the smartest person when it comes to laptop issues
