This looks very much like what I experienced when my graphics card died from memory defects.

The first f3 screenshot is when I first logged in, the second is a couple of minutes after.

Here’s the chart, if that helps.

@Brenton Reeser It appears that your graphics driver is outdated. The latest graphics driver available for your device (Intel® Core™ i5-1035G1 Processor) is version 31.0.101.2135, but you seem to be using version 26.20.100.7926.

Please try installing the latest graphics driver and let us know if the issue persists. The manufacturer of your device provides a download at the following page: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/776137/intel-7th-10th-gen-processor-graphics-windows.html

For context, it started having the same freezing/blinking problem a couple of days after updating to 1.21.5, and I temporarily fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling Minecraft. The text issue began immediately upon updating to 1.21.5.

@Brenton Reeser Please record a video of this happening and attach it to this report. If possible, please also attach a new screenshot of your debug screen.

• If you are on Windows, you can use Windows+Alt+R to open a built-in app for recording game footage.

• In case you don’t have a program to record videos, we recommend using the free recording software OBS Studio.

Unfortunately the game bugs out before I can take a screenshot of the debug screen, but here’s a video of the glitch. OBS doesn’t seem to record everything, because on my monitor that last stretch of black in the video (after tabbing back to Minecraft) actually flashed back and forth between the title screen and black. I don’t know if you’re able to hear it in the video, but before tabbing out I could hear myself breaking blocks, despite the visual freeze.

I was able to get it to load this morning, here’s the current f3 screen.

Thank you for your report!
