I was watching a Youtube video while uploading a video to my channel. I started resizing my windows, and when I overlapped one of my Chrome windows over the one with a video playing, the screen went black. The audio from the video was still running in the background, so I clicked ctrl+alt+del, and the ctrl+alt+del screen appeared. I opened up task manager, but it didn't appear. I clicked ctrl+alt+del again and shut down. While it was shutting down, the text and spinning circle looked broken, like there was another copy of it slightly to the right. It finished shutting down, and I started it back up. It started up normally, without any artifacting, and continued to function normally. I checked device manager right after starting back up, and there were no warnings (other than the trackpad that I don't need to fix because I have a mouse). What could have happened here?

It might be that the iGPU was overwhelmed by your action since the notebook has only 8 Gigs of RAM
and is shared with the iGPU. Do you have the Diagnostic tool(s) from HP on your notebook that you
could access to see if everything is OK with the hardware and software?

I do still have the HP diagnostics installed. I didn't see any warnings, so I ran a few of the iGPU-related and CPU-related tests, and they all passed. Also, a few hours after this happened, I started playing a game on the laptop, which pushes the iGPU to 100% and fills up the RAM, and it didn't crash, so I don't think it's an iGPU or RAM issue. I have also had a Youtube video playing while working on something else very often, and it has never done this before.
