Display flickering issues on HP laptops can arise due to various reasons, including driver problems, incorrect display settings, or even hardware issues. Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot and resolve the flickering issue:

Step 1: Update Graphics Drivers

Outdated or incorrect graphics drivers can often cause display flicker. Ensure you have the latest drivers installed.

1. Visit the HP Drivers and Software page.
2. Enter your laptop model to find the appropriate drivers.
3. Download and install the latest graphics drivers for your device.
   • You can also check for updates from the video hardware manufacturer's website, such as NVIDIA or Intel Downloads.

Step 2: Check and Adjust Display Settings

Incorrect resolution or refresh rate settings can result in flickering.

1. Change the Display Resolution and Refresh Rate:
   • Right-click the desktop and select Display settings.
   • Select the recommended resolution.
   • In Windows 11, select Advanced display. In Windows 10, select Advanced display settings.
   • Select Display adapter properties.
   • Select the Monitor tab.
   • Under Screen refresh rate, select another refresh rate if available.
   • Click OK to save the changes.

Step 3: Check Video Cable Connections

If you are using an external monitor, ensure all cable connections are secure and undamaged.

1. Unplug the cable and inspect it for damage.
2. If the cable is damaged, replace it.
3. Try using a different type of connection (e.g., USB Type-C, DisplayPort, HDMI).  

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
