    Latest Windows Update Causes Monitors to flash on and off


    Using Windows Pro 10 Education


    Using dual monitors


    Using a variety of HP machines


    Latest windows update changes the graphics driver from

    • Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 version 23.20.16.4849

    to

    • Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 version 26.20.100.7156

    When this is done, the computers all exhibit the same behaviour: monitors flash on and off and back on again at random intervals.


    Solution so far: roll back the driver, kill Windows Update for Drivers.


    Can you also please check your latest updates and remove this update?

    :)

    MS Office and Skype scaling issue with display monitors

    Hi J,

    The scaling issues with your display monitor can be caused by an outdated operating system. To further isolate the concern, we suggest that you check for the latest update for Windows by following these steps:

    • Click on Start or the Windows Logo on your taskbar.
    • Select Settings or the gear icon and click Updates & security.
    • Click on Check for updates.

    If any updates are found, install it and wait for Windows to complete the update and then restart the device.

    Let us know the result of your troubleshooting.
