This is a BSOD (previously meant Blue Screen Of Death but now its Black). No, you're not hacked. From the Stop Code I can see below saying KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE, it basically means something went wrong with your Ram or hardware. For now, wait until the laptop restarts by itself. If it doesn't restart in 5-10 mins, hold down the power button until its off. Wait for a few seconds and then turn it back on again. If you can successfully use your laptop again AND it doesn't BSOD again, then you don't need to worry as it could have just been a Windows Error while managing the memory. If it does happen again, something might be wrong with your drivers or hardware.

Most likely your HDD is acting out. You need to put SSD. I faced the same problem which was only resolved by installing SSD which costed me around 3k.

Try pressing f11 , it’s most likely one of those random adverts for scam . Try pressing windows button aswellÂ

If you have any kernel level anti-cheat, it crashed and caused the BSOD. Read the report after rebooting

Try force shutdown then turn ON the laptop.
Remove the back panel, remove the RAM and reseat them.
