Screen keeps blinking

1182 Views 12 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  rude
I'm getting so tired of this and it hurts my eyes too. Every so often my screen starts to blink and it keeps doing that until I restart the computer, then it stops and then starts and then stops, starts. Way annoying. Any ideas on why it is doing this and how to fix it would be really great. Thanks in advance for any help.

Sounds like you need a new driver for your graphics card.Go to Control Panel/System,on the Hardware tab,select Device Manager,and look for any yellow !'s.

Come back with the info and we will help you get sorted out.
Go back to Device Manager and find out which graphics card you have,then go to manufacturer's website and download a new dirver
Device Manager/Display Adapter
If you want to save your eyes, you need to RAISE the refresh rate to the highest setting you can, but make sure that there is a check in the box at "Hide modes that this monitor cannot display"

If your refresh rate was already on 60 hertz,that was your problem.
Ok,it's driver time,go here:

This is supposed to identify your chipset and direct you to the driver you need.
