Is there any fix to the issue of the screen randomly going dark while in Develop module other than disabling the graphics card?  Straigtening without graphics card is very slow.

Please post your System Information as Lightroom Classic (LrC) reports it. In LrC click on Help, then System Info, then Copy. Paste that information into a reply. Please present all information from first line down to and including Plug-in Info. Info after Plug-in info can be cut as that is just so much dead space to us non-Techs.

If turning OFF GPU works, it's a GPU bug and you need to contact the manufacturer or find out if there's an updated driver for it. This is why disabling GPU is an option as more and more functionality moves to the GPU in newer versions of many Adobe products.

Updating your graphics driver may let you work with the GPU enabled.

Thanks.  I should have mentioned that I already updated the drivers and the problem still occurs.

Then turn off the GPU in Lightroom Classic. (What size in pixels is your monitor?)
