Malfunctioning internal devices can lead to poor display resolutions, glitchy internet connectivity and of course, a flickering laptop screen. Both visual aspects and functionality in PC components suffer the consequences of outdated drivers when patches, updates, and bug fixes go by the wayside.

Wondering if your PC is due for an update? Check the status of your Windows 10 operating system in five easy steps.

• Step 1. Press the Windows taskbar button and press the gear symbol to access your PC settings.
• Step 2: Select “Update & Security” tab.
• Step 3. If your PC has scanned for available updates recently, you may see a list of pending installs alongside the names of programs, extensions, or drivers that need immediate updating.
• Step 4. If your PC has not completed an automated scan, you will be able to select “Check for updates.” This will sweep your hardware and operating system for any necessary updates.
• Step 5. Click “Install updates” and let your PC do the rest.
• Pro tip: Be sure to have your PC plugged in while updating - running out of battery in the middle of an update process could corrupt or damage your operating system.

Windows 10 does an excellent job of updating your PC with necessary fixes and patches but some important drivers go by the wayside. If your laptop screen has started flickering, you may be overdue for a manual driver update.

If you’re unsure of your display card’s manufacturer, you can check it by following these easy steps.

• Step 1. Access the Power User menu by right-clicking the Windows taskbar icon.
• Step 2. Select “Run.”
• Step 3. Type “dxdiag” into the Run dialog box.
• Step 4. The DirectX Diagnostic Tool window will pop up, granting access to all of your PC’s hardware information. On the top toolbar, you’ll see a number of tabs.
• Step 5. Select “Display 1.”
• Step 6. The name, manufacturer, device type, and all other related display information will be readily available.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
