Windows 10: plugged in shows on screen every 3 seconds. how do i get rid of it.

see above

:)

 

The battery icon shows it going from plugged in to battery then back to plugged in within about 3 seconds. Any ideas?

I have a Dell laptop with Windows 10. Every so many minutes, the screen dims and goes back to normal. I noticed the battery icon shows it is plugged in. When the screen dims, the laptop is acting like it's using the battery. The battery icon also shows
it going from plugged in to battery then back to plugged in within about 3 seconds. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi,



Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.



Please share these details.

1) Are you connecting the second monitor through the VGA or the HDMI port?

2) What is the make and model of the second monitor?



This issue could be caused due to some incorrect settings or due to an incompatible driver. I would suggest you to try these steps and check:



First, I would suggest you to check if you have configured the second screen correctly. It depends on which settings you have selected for the second monitor. You can extend, duplicate or choose only the second screen to be ON. If you have selected only the
second screen to be ON and if the second screen is not compatible, then both the screen might appear black. Refer to this article to check if you have configured the second screen correctly:

I would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the graphic card driver from the manufacturer website and check, if it works. Refer to the following steps to uninstall the graphic card driver from the Device Manager.

a. Click on Windows key + X and then, select Device Manager.

b. Locate and expand “Display Adaptor” in the Device Manager Window.

c. Right-click on the “Display Adaptor” and click on “uninstall" the graphic card driver.

d. Restart the computer and check, if it works.
