@OrhanGulen, Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding HP Victus 16 screen flickering!  
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. 

Here are a few steps you can follow: 

Check Display Cable Connection

• A loose or faulty internal display cable might cause flickering.
• Solution: If you're comfortable, have the laptop inspected for cable connectivity. Otherwise, consult HP support or a technician.

Test in Safe Mode

• Boot your laptop in Safe Mode to rule out software conflicts:
  • Press Windows + R, type msconfig, and hit Enter.
  • Go to the Boot tab, check Safe Boot, and restart.
  • If the flickering stops, it could be due to a driver or app conflict.

Roll Back or Reinstall Display Driver

• Sometimes, the latest driver update might not be fully compatible.
  • Open Device Manager > Display Adapters.
  • Right-click your graphics driver and select Properties.
  • Go to the Driver tab and click Roll Back Driver if available.
  • If not, uninstall the driver and restart to let Windows install the default driver.

Change Refresh Rate

• A mismatch in refresh rate can cause screen flickering.
  • Go to Settings > System > Display.
  • Under Advanced Display Settings, change the refresh rate to match your laptop’s specification (e.g., 60 Hz or 144 Hz).

Check External Factors

• External peripherals or chargers might cause interference.
  • Test your laptop without any connected peripherals.
  • Use a different power adapter or work on battery power alone.

Test on an External Monitor

• Connect your laptop to an external monitor. If the issue doesn’t occur on the external screen, the problem is likely with the internal display hardware.

Update BIOS and Firmware

• Outdated firmware can also lead to flickering issues.
  • Use HP Support Assistant or visit the HP Website to check for BIOS and firmware updates.

8. Factory Reset (If All Else Fails)

• As a last resort, consider resetting your laptop to factory settings:
  • Go to Settings > System > Recovery > Reset this PC.
  • Choose Keep My Files to preserve personal data.

Let me know how it goes!

Take care, and have an amazing day!
