Screen flickering can be caused by several issues. Here are some troubleshooting steps to try:
1. Check Cable Connections: Ensure all cables (power, HDMI, DisplayPort) between your PC and monitor are secure and undamaged.
2. Update Graphics Drivers: Sometimes outdated or corrupt drivers cause screen flickering. Update your graphics drivers via the official website (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel).
3. Monitor Refresh Rate: Go to Display Settings > Advanced Display Settings and ensure your refresh rate is set correctly for your monitor.
4. Check for Background Programs: Some programs or services might interfere with your display. Close unnecessary applications or check Task Manager for high resource usage.
5. Resolution Settings: Ensure your display resolution is set to the recommended level in Display Settings.
6. Safe Mode: Boot your PC in Safe Mode to see if the issue persists. If it doesn't, it might be a software conflict.
7. External Devices: Disconnect all external devices (USB sticks, external hard drives) and see if the flickering stops.
If these steps don't resolve the issue, consider consulting a technician or the manufacturer's customer support.
