Windows hard crash and restart for split-screen laptops

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Using a split-screen laptop (ASUS Zenbook Duo in my case), when AI is working on a task, if I have Cursor in full screen mode vertically across both screens, the PC frequently fully crashes. In particular, this may happen when I scroll down to read code while the agent is running.

Steps to Reproduce

On a split-screen device, have AI is working on a task, have Cursor in full screen mode vertically across both screens. Scroll down to read code while the agent is running. Or even, if it is doing a heavy operation standalone without UI interaction.

Expected Behavior

Not crash my entire PC.
Crashing just Cursor would be a good start.
