I have started a new job which requires me to connect my laptop to a monitor. I use a USB-C TO HDMI dongle from amazon which is connected to a HDMI to VGA cable. Immediately after the first use, the screen started flickering and this had been happening intermittently ever since.

@Zachw1 -- can you connect your monitor to a different computer, to see if the issue still exists?

 

Or, if your computer is feeding some "resolution" information, e.g., "1280-by-1024-at-72-cycles-per-second", and your monitor cannot handle those settings, it may "flicker".

 

Can you try connecting a different monitor to your HDMI-to-VGA adapter cable?

 

Can you try a different monitor that has HDMI-input ?

 

Can you new employer's I.T. Department help trouble-shoot your issue?
