Screen is frozen but you can still move the mouse cursor, or the display is black but the PC is clearly still running (fans spinning, lights on).
When a GPU glitches, the driver often gets stuck in a bad state. Resetting flushes the driver’s memory, restarts its processes, and forces the card to re-initialize. It just reboots the display engine. Method 1: The "Keyboard Ninja" (Windows Only – 1 Second) This is the fastest, most elegant method. Microsoft built a hidden shortcut that resets the graphics driver without a reboot.
Your screen will go black for a second, you’ll hear a beep , and then everything will pop back to life.
The screen freezes. It goes black. Artifacts (weird colors and shapes) flicker across the monitor. Or maybe your game stutters down to 1 frame per second.
