Hi all, I have a vanilla install of LL 4.0 updated and upgraded and everything is working fine except for my screen that flickers randomly. I've had it flicker when adjusting the volume, entering Netflix or Youtube, etc. It seemed to be related to the video card, so I went ahead and downloaded and installed the latest AMD drivers for it. I also installed all of the codecs but it still flickering.
Any ideas?
