It appears from what you said that there is a problem with the Nvidia GPU given the exclamation mark so presumably the laptop is using the integrated Intel GPU as the display adapter.
In ''Device Manager > Display adapters'' > you should see two GPUs, the Intel Graphics and NVIDIA
Have you checked that the driver versions for both GPUs are as shown [https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/legion-series/legion-y540-15irh/downloads/driver-list/component?name=Display%20and%20Video%20Graphics|here]? Click on the ''See Files'' link to the right of the drivers to see what the version number is.
To check if the drivers are up to date and also the status of the GPUs device go to ''Device Manager > Display adapters > right click the Nvidia entry > Properties > Driver tab > Driver Version'' and also to ''Device Manager > Display adapters > right click the Nvidia entry > Properties > General tab > Device Status''. Do the same for the Intel entry.
See if you can switch to the Nvidia adapter. To switch to your NVidia dedicated GPU, Right-click the blank space on the desktop, select NVIDIA Control Panel to switch between two graphics, manually under Manage 3D Settings > Preferred Graphics Processor.
Try starting the laptop in [https://www.digitalcitizen.life/4-ways-boot-safe-mode-windows-10|safe mode] and check if the problem is still there as far as the lines are concerned. Only generic Windows drivers are loaded when in safe mode so if the lines aren’t there it may be a driver problem with the Intel drivers as I’m assuming there is a problem with the Nvidia GPU.
