Blinking display (using Windows 8)

[martijnh]

Using the Fujitsu PR08, my display blinks (turns on/off) from time to time. Sometimes this happens with larger intervals, and sometimes I'm looking at thee screen blinking every 3-5 seconds. I have updated the Intel video drivers from the manufacturer website, but no change.

I have the same problem. Windows 8, Thinkpad Helix, Thinkpad USB 3.0 dock. After upgrading to 7.4 if I bring up (as an example) google images, both screens flicker and become very blurry. Nearly unusable.

Is DisplayLink actually QA'ing their products and drivers?

Hi,

The logs show that you have Windows 8.1 installed.

There are later Intel graphics drivers available (for Windows 8.1) directly from Intel: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22935

Thanks,

I have a Lenovo T500 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650, with which the exact same thing is happening. I exchanged the display, but the issue remains.

Hi,

Are you seeing the same issue as frentica? Flickering & blurry screen on both systems?

Thanks,
James

No, my screen just seems to go into "no signal" mode for periods of time. This seems to happen randomly.
