I bought this laptop last year and it was doing it's job. I had it for school. I wanted to play games like the sims 3 and 4 on it. But every time I open the game, the screen starts flashing and flickering. It get's so bad that after a minute it will freeze and closes.
I don't know if you can open this picture. I don't know how to upload it.
