You can try to isolate the problem.
Can you check the same monitor with another device and a different cable?
Can you try the same monitor and the same cable with a different device?
Can you try the same laptop, different monitor and different cable?
Also, what monitor and what laptop are those?
How are they connected? Via HDMI?

That is a damaged monitor. Further troubleshooting may determine if you need to replace the controller board or the panel itself.

Honestly to me it doesn't look like a faulty monitor.
I've had similar issues caused from a faulty driver
GPU driver
keen bloom
Really?
How can i fix that?
im thinking the problem is the laptop
Or gpu maybe then
cursive osprey
It is possible that the GPU is slowly dying, maybe specifically the external output signal that feeds the hdmi
Have you tried to remove the drivers and re-install them?
cursive osprey
Well, it's the same regardless if it's a laptop or a desktop
keen bloom
how would i do that?
cursive osprey
Do you know what graphics card your laptop has?
cursive osprey
Okay, so that's an Nvidia graphics card
keen bloom
yep
cursive osprey
So, I suggest to download first the driver installer because it would be annoying (laggy) trying to go through the web without the graphics drivers
Select your graphics card and download the driver (don't run the installer yet, just download it)
keen bloom
is this right

cursive osprey
Yes, sorry
cursive osprey
The first one
keen bloom
game ready?
cursive osprey
Yes
cursive osprey
Don't worry

In my case, what caused the problem is that windows installed a really old driver that caused issues, I uninstalled the driver and installed a new one, but somehow, windows went ahead and re-installed the old one, despite having already newer drivers. So what ended up happening is the system was constantly glitching and crashing because there were two graphics drivers running at the same time, for the same gpu. I'm pretty sure this is not what's happening, but it's not a bad idea to try reinstalling the drivers
cursive osprey
Yes, but also, on the control panel we're going to delete "GeForce experience" "GeForce control panel"
keen bloom
so what should i do?
cursive osprey
Wait for the download to finish
keen bloom
just everything from nvidia?
cursive osprey
Yes
cursive osprey
Don't "restart now" if given the option, restart only after you've removed everything
cursive osprey
Seeing your driver number, you're slightly old, but not really

guess i have tp

The fact that it's not letting you remove seems like an unusual behavior. Could be a faulty driver after all (maybe?)
keen bloom
Hope so

If that's the case, worst case scenario, is you'll need to backup all your files and reformat windows
Otherwise, it might be a hardware issue, which in my opinion, is much worse
cursive osprey
What do you mean?
Don't go to the site again
Remove the drivers
And install the one you've downloaded
keen bloom
Does the issue still exist?
yes
