I upgraded my HP Pavilion 15 cs3001ne to windows 11 >> after that the screen keeps flickering .. the only way i found to fix this, is to remove the 2 Display Adapters from Device Manager... so what could be causing this??.. now when i removed the 2 Display Adapter, the screen font will be small .. so how i can have the 2 Display Adapters + do not have any flickering??
Thanks

Hi @developerdesign,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
The screen flickering issue after upgrading to Windows 11 on your HP Pavilion 15 could be due to incompatible or outdated display drivers. Here’s how you can troubleshoot and resolve this issue.
Update Display Drivers:
- Go to Device Manager (you can search for it in the Start menu).
- Locate the Display Adapters section, right-click on each adapter, and select "Update driver."
- Choose "Search automatically for updated driver software" and follow the on-screen instructions to update them.
Roll Back Drivers (if necessary):
- If updating doesn't work or makes things worse, you can try rolling back the display drivers to the previous version that was stable.
- In Device Manager, right-click on the display adapter, select "Properties," go to the "Driver" tab, and click on "Roll Back Driver" if it's available.
Download Drivers from HP’s Website:
- Visit HP’s official website and download the latest drivers specifically designed for your HP Pavilion 15 model and Windows 11. Install these drivers manually if the automatic update doesn’t resolve the issue.
Check for Windows Updates:
- Sometimes, Windows updates include fixes for compatibility issues. Ensure your Windows 11 is up to date by checking for and installing any pending updates.
Adjust Display Settings:
- After updating drivers, you may need to adjust display settings to ensure optimal resolution and scaling. Right-click on the desktop, select "Display settings," and adjust the scaling and resolution as needed.
Disable Hardware Acceleration (if applicable):
- Some applications may conflict with the graphics hardware acceleration. Try disabling hardware acceleration in applications like web browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox) or other software that uses it.
Check for Compatibility Issues:
- Ensure that all your applications and peripherals are compatible with Windows 11. Incompatibilities can sometimes cause issues like screen flickering.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.

I already removed the 2 "Display Adapters" and i reinstall them, restart the laptop but still the same issue. if i remove the 2 display adapters the flickering will stop, but the display will not be accurate, the text will be large + the brightness will not be maximized .
also if i remove the 2 adapters and i restart the laptop, the 2 display adapters will be reinstalled automatically and the problem will happen again .. any advice?
also my windows 11 is up to date already there is not any required or optional updates available
