Product: HP Spectre X360 - 13-Aw0023dx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
Recently my screen has started to blank or flicker when I use the touchpad. Sometimes the screen flickers rapidly and other times it just goes black when I try to move the cursor or select a link or a word on the page. Sometimes, continued use of the touchpad brings the screen back, other times it does not. I can always bring the display back on by touching the screen itself. I only experience the problem in laptop mode. When I fold it over into pad mode I have no issues, but of course am interacting with the touch screen exclusively. There have been several recent windows updates and I have installed Nord VPN recently, other than that I have made no intentional changes. The touchpad information in settings claims that it is running correctly. What diagnostics should I try to narrow down the source of this problem?'
