frozen screen
Computer's visual seizure
A frozen screen is a computer or device display that has stopped responding to input—the image remains static and controls don't work.
The freeze typically results from software crashes, insufficient memory, or hardware issues.
My laptop's frozen screen forced me to restart.
The fix is usually to wait, force-quit an application, or reboot the device.
