Hi! I just built a new computer. After installing the gpu-drivers the problems started. Strange flickering on the top of the screen. Its not consistent, but happends occasionally when i do something like switch a tab in the browser or open a new window. Strange thing is that it never occur in fullscreen programs (games). But after a brief session of viewing a film or playing a game the issue tend to occur more ofen. My thought was that it might be something wrong with the GPU. But since ive not had any luck getting past bios (into windows) with the MOBO's integrated gpu, and the issues did NOT happend while gaming it might rather be a problem with the mobo? Sorry if its messy.. Thanks! Specc: ASUS P8Z77-V PRO CHIEFTEC 750W PSU G.SKILL Ripjaws 16GB DDR3 INTEL 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K GIGABYTE HD7850
Alright, then the flickering is a software issue. Try a clean video driver installation : http://www.pchelpforum.com/general-.../90352-how-do-clean-video-driver-install.html And do not update video drivers via Windows Updates.
