Please help a Lenovo victim here. I have been using the laptop for a month and then the screen started flashing like crazy to the point of unusable. Right now the screen starts flickering basically within 5 mins of use. Only after this issue had surfaced then I searched the internet, only to have realised Lenovo Yoga laptops are well known to have this issue. Can somebody help me???
My observations are:
1. No screen flashing or whatsoever in boot menu, images crisp
2. Screen could start flashing even on the win 10 login screen. Even without flashing, I could also tell there is some flickering on the image
3. When I duplicate the screen to an external monitor, no flashing on external monitor while it's flashing on my laptop screen
Here are what I have done:
1. Updated the graphics adapter to the latest drivers
2. Updated the BIOS to the latest version
3. Checked that "Windows Error Reporting Services" and "Problem Reports and Solutions Control Panel Support" are disabled in msconfig (some ones on Youtube suggested turning them off)
4. Called the Lenovo technical support and the representative suggested reinstalling win 10 which I wanted to save as last resort. If the problem is prevalent, there should be some solution.
