    Intermittent screen flicker


    I have a screen flicker problem which seems different from that which is commonly reported.

    My flicker is intermittent, occurring perhaps once in an hour, often less frequently. Typically the screen flickers briefly, then goes black. After a few moments it comes back as normal.

    My drivers are up to date according to an app I have for checking this. I am trying to determine whether there is a particular program that is running when the flashing occurs. Perhaps it is incipient monitor failure?

    I'd be grateful for any insights.

    :)
