Windows 10: Blurry screen issue while playing games.

So, I've had pretty much no trouble playing games on my laptop for as long as I've had it. A week or two ago, I booted up a game and the graphics were all messed up. I checked other games and the vast majority of them have the same issue, though some are unaffected. This includes Steam games, but also the Minecraft Launcher Java Version so it isn't exclusive to Steam applications. I've done system updates and tried graphic driver updates I have IntelR HD Graphics 520 and NVIDIA GeForce 940MX. I'm a little tech savvy, but nothing I've tried so far has worked.The glitches are scrambling pi
