Screen flicker

whatever works for you. the whole point of DDUing in safe mode is to 100% remove all graphics drivers (it will auto use microsoft basic after that) before installing a new one.

The flicker came back, so I went the DDU route.

Just before writing I saw a very small flicker, so I am afraid it will be back.
And actually as writing, now another one. So yeah it is back :(

It must be some imprecise refresh rate. Install the graphics drivers and then try changing the refresh rate. If it is 59Hz, make it 60Hz. If it is already 60Hz, see if 75Hz is supported and if it is flicker-free.

it seems to work fine on 75hz with 1600x900, just not a very nice screen, but no flicker.
Strange specs of monitor say 1920 is supported

Guess I use this now, till I buy new monitor sometime, hope that with a new one i will not have same troubles.
