Windows 10: Windows 11 crashed, affecting display

I was working on several PDFs when my HP laptop, running Windows 11 crashed. Now the brightness is greatly reduced, the text size is tiny and my second monitor isn't being detected. When this happened before I updated to Windows 11 but now there are no updates showing. Does anyone know what I should do?

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.
