My screen keeps breaking

I’ve tried multiple things now to fix my issue but I can’t seem to figure anything out.  After the update my game has been fine everywhere else except for actually playing. I removed all mods so that’s not the issue. As well a repairing the game. I’m not sure what to do now please help, If anyone has and recommendations please share! The pic shows what I mean!

  • fluffypeachfuzz​  That looks like an issue with the graphics driver, as in it's missing or not working.  Please try (re)installing the newest driver for your laptop.  Go here:

    https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/laptops

    Enter your serial number, choose your OS (just Windows 11 is fine) if prompted, click All Drivers, expand Driver-Graphics, and download the newest Intel/Nvidia/AMD driver (whichever your laptop has) by version number.  The first number matters most, e.g. 32 is newer than 31; after that, the last four numbers matter.

    Restart your laptop after installing the driver and before trying to play.

    If that doesn't help, or you're not sure exactly what to do, please link me the driver download page.  It doesn't contain any information about you or your own computer, only the overall model.

    In that case, please also provide a dxdiag.  Click Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
