Hello!
I'm having problems with artifacts. When I watch videos on youtube, I stop the video, go to a different page, and then back to the video, it is green, till I start it. I had a problem previously, all of the videos would get a purplish tint, but if there was, for example, a window in front of the video, the video would be normal. Since then I got the driver updated, but now I have these artifacts, even when I'm browsing, sometimes the whole page goes black, then reloads, or animations like dropdown menus, would get little green square artifacts. These happen like 5-7 times a day (the green videos all the time).
I don't know if my pc has a bad driver, or my GPU is dying.
The laptop has: Ryzen 5 2500U, integrated Vega 8 , 8Gb ram, 256GB NVMe SSD
Thank you for your answers in advance!

Thank you for your message!
I switched off hardware acceleration in Google Chrome and the problem seems it vanished, but I have a problem with the Windows crashing with Unexpected Store Exception error. It happens around once a day or once two days.
In the Assistant app when I try to find updates, it shows that updates are unavailable and to install updates I have to log into the device, but I don't understand, because I am using the laptop logged in or I don't know where it wants me to log in.
