Screen turns 'grainy'

Every now and then, usually when I am looking at a You Tube video, the screen suddenly turns a grey color, like a grainy black and white tv.
Can't get out of it no matter what buttons I press except for the power button.
As soon as I hit again the screen id fine again.
What could be causing this ?
I am on Windows 11, using an Asus Vivobook laptop.

    Update the graphics card driver → Enter a custom scaling in Settings > System > Display > Advanced Scaling Settings, check to see if it's an HDR issue, try turning it off in Settings > System > Display > HDR
