flickering screen

[partialism]

hi

so as you can tell from the title of this thread, my laptop's screen is flickering

however, when i restart it the flickering stops and the screen works normally.

i've tried deleting and reinstalling the display driver, updating the bios, and so far nothing has worked

anyone have a solution?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

• When was the last time it worked without these issues?
• Have you updated Graphics and Chipset drivers?
• Have you checked the display on an external monitor?

Let’s try these steps to resolve the problem:

I recommend you attempt to access the BIOS screen by tapping on F10 while the computer is restarting, 

If the issue persists in the BIOS screen which is outside windows, it would confirm a hardware failure.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

ok

- not entirely sure when it last worked without the issue, but i think it was somewhere around august 20 - 24

- i don't recall updating any specific driver, although i have tried deleting and re-installing the display driver software

- i don't have an external monitor

sorry i can't be more specific, i will try opening the bios

Please check the display in BIOS environment, If the issue persists in the BIOS screen which is outside windows, it would confirm a hardware failure.

thanks for your help,

i couldn't get into the bios (it was impossible to hit f10 in time)

i did a hard reset and it seems to have done the trick

thank you!
