Hi @Hinaasghar13,


Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

 

I’m sorry you’re experiencing this screen flickering issue, Let’s go through some troubleshooting steps to identify and fix the issue on your notebook.

 

1. Uninstall the Display Drivers

  1. Press Windows Key + X → Device Manager
  2. Expand Display adapters
  3. Right-click your graphics card → uninstall the driver → restart the unit 

2. Disable Adaptive Brightness / Intel Display Power Saving

  1. Press Windows Key → Search “Intel Graphics Command Center” or Intel HD Graphics Control Panel
  2. Navigate to Power → On Battery / Plugged In → Display Power Saving Technology
  3. Turn it off
  4. On Windows:
    • Settings → System → Display → Brightness and colour → Disable Change brightness automatically when lighting changes

This feature can cause flickering at low/medium brightness.

 

3. Check Power Plan Settings

  1. Control Panel → Power Options
  2. Click Change plan settings → Change advanced power settings
  3. Expand Display → Enable adaptive brightness → Turn off

4. Test in Safe Mode

  1. Restart the laptop → press  Shift + Restart → Troubleshoot → Advanced Options → Startup Settings → Safe Mode
  2. If flickering stops in Safe Mode, the issue is likely a driver/software conflict.

5. BIOS / Firmware Update

  1. Open HP Support Assistant
  2. Check for BIOS or firmware updates
  3. Install updates, reboot, and test screen flickering again

6. External Monitor Test

  • Connect the laptop to an external monitor
  • If the external display does not flicker, the issue is likely with the laptop’s internal display or inverter
  • If it flickers on the external monitor, it’s more likely a graphics driver or GPU issue

    I hope this helps.
