Flickering and blinking laptop screen

I'm using a laptop with Windows 10 and an Intel HD Graphics 4600 display adaptor. A few days ago I attached a Dell D3000 dock to my laptop, and almost immediately my laptop screen started to flicker and repeatedly blink off and on again. I disconnected the dock, which did not resolve the problem, and since then I've tried various techniques to fix the problem, but none of them have worked. In order, this comprised of:

1. attempting system restore - but all five restore points were corrupted (?!);
2. updating the driver for the Intel display adaptor;
3. rolling back the driver for the Intel display adaptor;
4. uninstalling the driver for the Intel display adaptor;
5. downloading Windows 10 from the Microsoft site and re-installing it.

The problem has persisted even when I disconnected everything from my laptop, took it to my workplace, and switched it on there (using its battery for power); so the following possible reasons can be ruled out: its location in my house, any attached peripherals, a faulty power cable.

I am certain the problem is in some way connected to the Intel HD Graphics 4600 display adaptor:

1. after I completely uninstalled it - which reverted the graphics card to the standard Microsoft one - the screen didn't flicker or blink once afterwards (I left the laptop switched on for about an hour without incident, whereas previously I would experience as many as ten 'events' a minute). This rules out a possible damaged connection between the body of the laptop and its screen. However, when Windows auto-installs updates it reinstates the Intel one...
2. ...and when the laptop is switched on the screen flickers and repeatedly blinks off and on again...
3. ...although, strangely, connecting an external monitor to the laptop (HDMI to HDMI) results in neither the laptop screen nor the external monitor flickering or blinking. The problem returns when I disconnect the HDMI cable from the HDMI port on the laptop.

I now have the inescapable feeling that when I attached the dock I somehow fried the Intel display adaptor, and it isn't possible to fix it: I have read in the forums that replacing the graphics card on a laptop is well-nigh impossible. But if anyone else can suggest an approach I haven't yet tried I'd be very receptive!

As an aside, I contacted the retailer and they have sent me all of the drivers that are available for my system, but I don't know how to install them.

 

Intel HD 4000 Drivers cause black screens

Hi,

I have just clean installed Win 10 (v1709) on my Asus UX51VZ Zenbook. As soon as Win Update installs the Intel HD 4000 driver, the screen turns black and only turns on again when I move the mouse or touchpad or type the keyboard. As soon as I stop moving/typing,
the screen turns black again. Yeah, very strange behaviour, but also very annoying. This does only occur if in battery mode. I think it is very similar to this guys problem, who's thread is unfortunately closed:

Redirecting

What I tried to resolve the issue:

.) uninstall the WinUpdate driver and install the driver from Intel directly https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27417?v=t via device manager - did not help

.) install the driver from Asus (only Win 8) - driver works, but problem persists

The only thing that temporarily fixes the issues is uninstalling the Intel HD 4000 driver in device manager. Then, the problem is definitely gone - but the display resolution is rather poor then and the display cannot be set brighter/darker any more. As
soon as I restart windows, it reinstalls the driver from WinUpdate and the problem is here again.

This problem did not occur with former versions of Windows.
