    Screen goes black and flickers


    Hi, for the past year I've been having problems with my screen. Sometimes the screen will go black with weird coloured lines for a few seconds, then the screen goes to normal and flickers. Now I've notices that it isn't always the whole screen that flickers. Sometimes its just the taskbar and the cursor or just the cursor which flickers. I've tried all sort of fixes such as updating my drivers, scanning for malware and rolling back to previous updates but none has worked. It mostly happens when I am using OneNote and Zoom but happens when using any app. Closing the laptop and opening it again

    :)

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Did you install any third party security application?
    • Is the issue specific when watching videos on YouTube or does it happen randomly?
    • In which browser are you watching the videos?
    • Did you try different browser?
