Screen flashingUpdated 2 months ago
If you're experiencing an occasional flash on your screen or digital marquee, follow these steps to ensure your settings are correct:
- Press the WIN key on your keyboard (located left of the spacebar).
- Open Settings (gear icon).
- On the left side menu, select "System".
- Scroll down to find the "Advanced Display" option under "related settings".
- Find the "Choose a refresh rate" option at the bottom. Set this to 59.94 Hz.
If your screen won't stay on long enough for you to change the setting described above, you can try the method below.

The reason is that with each flash, your marquee is getting disconnected. When it comes back on, it's connected. The command must be executed when the marquee is on.
