    Re: Screen Flickering

    It's been a long time. I did send my computer back to check this. They replaced the graphics card at no charge. Ubuntu still has this blinking issue. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

    Update, I sent my computer back to MSI to check if this is caused by the graphics card or the LCD. We will see if they figure it out. It seems to me that it has to be one of those things because this...

    Re: Screen Flickering

    It's not all of the time... it will go away sometimes. I tried to jostle the screen around to see if it was a mechanical issue and didn't find that to be the case. It seems to happen randomly.

    No black screen, no white screen. It's like a quick dimming in and out. It's more noticeable in darker colors.
