Windows 10: My screen flickers on and off when restarting from deep sleep all lights off while on...

This is a copy of a post made in November by another member, I have the same problem exactly and I wondered if anyone had a solution? The flickering seems to be mouse related...when I move the mouse, the screen goes to black and stays black until I find a good spot with the mouse. The only solution to fix this problem that I have been able to find is to power down and power back up. Then usually everything works fine. The only variation to these conditions were when I exhausted the battery, and, after plugging in and repowering, the condition persisted while I rebooted a few times. I have

Screen starts to flicker after logging in for a while

Hello

This is an entirely new issue. My screen starts to flicker after logging in/turning on computer for a while, and/or if I launch an app that uses my Nvidia card (my laptop has Optimus), I'm not exactly sure which of these two causes it. For the first while after a restart, the screen appears fine. The flickering appears on desktop background + internet browser as well, so I'm pretty sure it's not a program compatibility issue. The flickering is not severe (the type that looks like horizontal bars sliding up) but it's an annoyance.

Tried:

• Disabling Windows error reporting + problem reporting service in msconfig
• Restart computer
• Resetting Nvidia global settings to default in Nvidia control panel
• Checking for display drive updates in device manager (all up to date)
• Checking monitor refresh rate (60Hz, can't be changed)

Laptop I'm using:

• i7-4700MQ 2.4GHz
• 1900x1080
• Intel HD 4600 + Nvidia GT750M

Thanks for suggestions.
