From your screenshot, I believe this is issue with your graphic card driver.
Try update Windows and update your Graphic Card driver and see if the problem persist.
Display issue that is recurring especially after the Win 11 update

So, I have a acer nitro 5 AN515-57. Sometimes while working the display malfunctions( I have attached the file below showing the issue). This is a recurring problem, especially after the Win 11 update. Any idea whether this is a software or hardware issue? And how to fix it?
Kindly help.

Are you able to restart your PC?
Does it back to normal after the restart? -

It usually occurs when I am browsing the web. -

Charlotte May 0 Reputation points2023-12-06T17:33:44.05+00:00 This just happened to my Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57. This is a brand new computer, I bought it because my other Acer Nitro 5 AN515-44 started having screen flickering issues. Is this just the brand that has these problems?
I've never had issues like this until I started using this model. Acer was one of the biggest brands I used growing up, I still have my old laptop from 2012 - it has a lot of issues but it didn't have screen issues.

2022-04-10T17:41:08.21+00:00 So, I updated my driver, but still the issue persists along with some other graphical issues
. The laptop is still under warranty. Should I go for it? -

You don't need to DO anything in the BIOS, this is just testing to see if the screen works fine when Windows is not running.
If it's fine there, then you know your hardware itself is functional and the issue can probably be resolved with a driver update or finding the offending software failure.

But the device usually runs fine for much time even when using windows. Just that sometimes
this error happens and then corrects itself after 10 sec. After it corrects itself, then when I watch videos on the internet, the image is slightly displaced looking as if it's leaking red or blue colours.
Here's an attachment showing the same:
