  1. Random black flicker top of screen


    Hi,

    I am currently using Windows 10 Pro 64-bit and sometimes I get a screen flicker on the top of my screen. It uses flicker a black bar really fast and it does this random.

    My system has a Nvidia 1660 Super (MSI Geforce 1660 Super OC XS) and 2 screens connected, 1 HDM and 1 DisplayPort.

    Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this problem?

    Thanks.
