So I have like 40 hour on the game everything was perfect but I started having an issue, when I start the game the screen goes black but the game is still playing turning off the screen then turning it on fixes the problem for 2 seconds before it goes black again I tried changing from full screen to borderless window it fixed the issue for like 3 hours and it came back disabled all mods, again problem dissapered I went to sleep thinking I solved it, left the game runing all nigth and the problem came back but now when I closed the game the screen was doing weird things like flickering and moving sideways, after this I unistalled the game and all the weird flickering solved but when I installed again it returned at this point I'm 100% sure the problem is the graphic card but idk how to solve it

Can you share your logs.zip file found in C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid?
Yeah sure tomorrow I'll do it, sorry for the late reply
ok I thinks thats the one you were asking for
There do not seem to be any errors in the game, so it might be caused by something outside of it
You can try first updating your graphic drivers, as they just seem slightly out of date. See if that helps the issue:

Thanks I'll check
After updating some drivers and bios the main problem of the black screen dissapered completely but some times when I turn on the computer there is still some screen tearing that can be solved by charging the uncharging the laptop so far the main issue is gone
Generally if a laptop is in battery mode, it turns into power saving mode by default
Meaning your FPS gets capped, refresh rate can be lowered and many other things
So that would explain any tearing or similar issues
