Twice now, I've walked away from my computer for long enough that the screen turns off and then come back to this:

Picture of the problem

This time, it was only a firefox window, but the last time, the problem extended to my desktop.

My specs are listed here, according to the OEM. As it is a laptop, I'm concerned it might be RAM degredation, as listed in this question.

My current theories are as follows:

  • Something regarding Windows update. I'm using the june 9th 1903 release (cmd says that's Version 10.0.18362.900)
  • Perhaps it's a driver issue. I can try updating my graphics driver.
  • Perhaps Firefox is having issues with hardware acceleration. I can try disabling that.
  • RAM artifacts? This would be pretty serious, as the computer is only 6 months old and ram replacements are difficult on laptops.
