Internet Explorer 11 constantly causes screen flickering with Windows 8.1

My screen is constantly flickering and sometimes tabs go blank (white) for no reason while using IE11 with Windows 8.1. This does not happen with other browsers. My resolution and refresh rate for my monitor are both set to recommended settings
and my Windows and drivers are all up to date.

Hi,
According to your description, this problem might be related to :
1.”Add-ons”:Have you download any add-ons like Active-X and other objects recently?
2.The “Enhanced protected mode”.
3.The “Accelerated graphic”.
Solutions
First of all ,you can open the Action center\Troubleshooting\ Programs to use the troubleshooting tool to check whether it can detect something or give us any useful diagnostic reports .
Run “iexplore.exe –extoff “ to open the IE with all
the “Add-ons” disabled ,if this problem disappears ,the problem may be caused by the “Add-ons” ,you can open “Manage Add-ons” in the IE tools to enable the add-ons one by one to check which add-on contributes to this problem.
Open the “Internet options”, choose the “Security” tab , disable the “Enable Protected Mode” ,restart the IE to check whether it works.
Internet Explorer 11 flickers and a box (Windows Installer) flashes.

Open the “Internet options”, choose the “Advanced” tab ,tick or untick “Use software
rendering instead of GPU rendering” and check the result
If these steps don`t work , please
open the Event viewer\ Applications and services logs\ Internet
explorer to check if we can get any error\warning information.

After I upgraded to yosemite my screen flickers with windows, very strange.

So, after I upgraded to Yosemite, in spurts, there are flickers of windows at random positions around the screen.
It doesn't seem to depend on what applications are running. However I'm usually running Safari, so perhaps it depends on Safari.
Let me describe what the picture below is:
I took an iPhone video of my computer screen, used VLC and slowed down the video to (really really) slow, and then took a screen snap shot during the flicker.
So, if you look at the weirdness, it is a ghost of the entire screen, but, obviously, not in the right place. These fickers can be frequent, like, "bididididi (pause) bidididid (pause)," or in frequent like, "bip (wait a very long time) bip (wait a very long time, perhaps hours)."
This never ever happened with Mountain lion.
About my mac says:
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.

Internet explorer 11 cause explorer.exe crashes

Hi There,
Just to let you know a little tips that can help for other about IE11 and explorer crashes fix
I don't know where posting that, so it will be here ! :)
Yesterday i decided to install Internet explorer 11 on my freshly installed Windows 7 Pro ed.
No problems during install, but after the reboot, my computer went on a strange state:
- Explorer keeps crashes itself everytime i launched a tool from the run command, or simply when i wanted to launch an explorer or other.
- Some services couldn't start (svchost, dhcp client, search, wmi etc ...)
- No launched programs in the taskbar.
- Security essentials failed to launch
- Funny thing : i could type only 4 letters into the run command, impossible to launch anythink except (hopefully) a CMD prompt :D
so after breaking my head on my desk, i decided to try something :
on a CMD i ran a SFC /scannow and it repaired some errors, not all.
I parsed the CBS.LOG file, and realized that one DLL failed to repair on the generated txt (see details below) :
this dll was : IEPROXY.DLL and i made the link between my IE11 installation and this dll.
==> method to parse the CBS.LOG file : launch CMD as admin and type the following:
findstr /C:"[SR] Cannot repair member file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >sfcdetails.txt
so here is the fix/workaround : simply uninstall IE11!
But ... wait, you cannot access to APPWIZ.CPL (remember: impossible to laucn the control panel without crashing explorer) so we will uninstall IE11 with a command line:
on the CMD type this :
FORFILES /P %WINDIR%\servicing\Packages /M Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-*11.*.mum /c "cmd /c echo Uninstalling package @fname && start /w pkgmgr /up:@fname /quiet /norestart"
when it's ok, simply restart the computer, IE10 will be available automatically and the issue disapeared.
Hope it helps someone.
David

If it doesn't work, please help to post back the IE crash dump file here for our research:
First enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\iexplore.EXE]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\

"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001
"CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
Then, open IE to repro the issue. If crash issue appeared, please find the crashdump file under c:\.

How to close Internet Explorer and other programs running on Windows?

In order for Flash Player to be installed or updated, any programs that use Flash Player must be closed. This includes Internet Explorer or other browsers, instant messengers, Skype, etc.
These programs may be running in the background, not as visible windows, but need to be closed anyway.
To close such programs use the Windows Task Manager. To start Task Manager, take any of the following actions:
Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and then click Task Manager.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC.
Right-click an empty area of the taskbar, and then click Task Manager.
Once the Task Manager is running, select the Processes tab. On older Windows version you may need to click on the Process Name or Image Name header to sort the process names.
Now right-click on every process that the Flash Player installer needs to close (e.g. iexplore.exe), then select End Process.
It would be desirable if the Flash Player installer could perform that action by itself; I have therefore created an enhancement request. If you were affected by this problem, please head over to the Bugbase and vote for this request: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3548136

Screen flickers with safari version 8.0.2. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.1. Reseted safari, rebooted, etc. Nothing works.
Ideas on how to fix?
The flickering doesn't always happen but does come back after some time of use.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

TS3274 I have a new iPad mini w/retina display. Recently, the screen flickered with red lines across the entire screen. Anyway, the screen eventually went black. Now it does't work. Anyone have any suggestions?

My screen just went haywire. The screen flickered with red strips vertically. I thought it was part of the game I was operating until the screen went black and a white strip illiminated at the top. I tried turning teh system off, but it would not allow me to turn it off. After about 5 minutes, I was able to turn it off. Anyone have this occur? The Ipad mini appears to be ok now.

I Also have this problem!!
In my situation, the screen simply started exhibiting the same symptoms a few weeks ago (early February) for no apparent reason. At first I thought the screen was dead, but discovered the heat solution by accident. Now I turn it on and keep it from going to sleep until I go to bed. Thank goodness the battery is still awesome on this thing.
I bought it new and still has the original screen, I keep it at home (never below 62 degrees). Coincidentally, this happened a day or two after the expiration of the warranty!! Any help figuring this one out would be eternally appreciated.

Return commit for DP-K---Why no Internet Explorer access due to problem with web page?

I ran full scans on MBAM & SUPERAntiSpyware as requested. All I got was 2 adware tracking cookies detected with the spyware program. I have Windows Vista Home Basic with a 32-bit operating system IE version was Internet Explorer 8 & I also downloaded Explorer 9 with no difference in result. The toolbar "fix" was probably in regards to general computer problems. Please advise.

Hi,
First, close all open applications.
From the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, right click the Command Prompt and select 'Run as Administrator'. Into the prompt, type the following commands, hitting enter after each command. Include spaces in the commands where shown.
ipconfig /flushdns
nbtstat -R
nbtstat -RR
netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt
netsh winsock reset
When complete, type exit and hit enter, then restart the PC and check connectivity.
If this doesn't resolve the issue, another area worth checking is whether there is any problem with the Layered Service Providers on the PC - although problems with these usually cause no connection at all. You can do this by downloading LSP-Fix on the link below. Save this to your Desktop. This is a stand-alone application so you can just delete it afterwards.
LSP-Fix
When download, right click the application and select 'Run as Administrator'. If everything is ok with your LSPs you will see green writing stating this. If it does detect a problem, post back with the error.

The financial application is running smoothly. We don't know why when I selected the discoverer responsibility from IE menu and the errors will be displayed after new window pop up.
Hope someone can tell us the solution.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Hussein,
Thank you for your reply. Our application release is 11i. I have try to downgrade the browser from IE8 to IE7 yesterday, and got the same problem. After reviewed you provided the blog information, my configuration should not have any problems. The console log does not found anything, because the problem happened at start moments.
I have some information retrieve from internet and said that these problems are caused by Display Device. The display device are not compatible with Jinitiator. I don't whether true or not.
Best Regards,
Sammy

Screen flickering in windows 8 and 8.1

Recently I've started to have this problem in both windows 8 and 8.1, where the screen flickers and lines and other oddities dance across the screen. It seems to happen much more in windows 8.1 than in windows 8, but it does still happen in windows 8. It seems to have started when I upgraded the OS X side of my laptop to Mavericks. The odd thing is that it doesn't exhibit the problem on the main display or a newly attached external display when at all when I plug the computer into an external display with hdmi. This makes me think that it might be some sort of a driver issue, but I am not really sure. Here is a video showing the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ICiCFfWv8I If anyone has any ideas about how I might be able to fix this issue, or if I need to have the laptop repaired/replaced, that would be extremely helpful!
Thanks!

@pwabrahams ,
Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forums. If each driver is the same file name and same date but have different file sizes. What you will want to do is to download each one and save it to an external memory device.
Once you have the drivers downloaded boot your system into safe mode.
Windows 8 Safe Mode
Now in safe mode uninstall the driver for your video.
When the driver is removed boot back into windows normally and install the driver.
Try all three drivers. If all have the same issue you will need to do a repair. For that you will need to contact HP phone support.

Internet Explorer cannot open url in local Windows network share

Windows Server 2012 R2 as a domain controller
Internet Explorer 11 64/32
Favorites are redirected to a Windows network share (on the server itself)
Issue: When clicking a favourite redirected to the Windows network share, IE does nothing.
For testing purpose,
I double click a .url file in redirected Favorites (e.g.
\\domain_controller\profiles\username\Favorites\website.url), IE opens with a blank page.
If the .url file is placed at local drive or a Samba share (e.g. in a Synology box, probably it does not really matter as long as it is a network share residing in another computer), IE works fine.
The issue applies to every one (probably except Administrator) logged on the domain controller.
I tried reset IE. It did not work.
Favourites redirection works on Windows 8.1 client computers in the domain.
Pinned Site Shortcut (.website) file works everywhere
When Enable Protected Mode in Internet Options\Security\Internet is disabled, IE can open .url file in a Windows network share. But it is probably not a good idea to permanently disable it.
Any suggestion on fixing the issue? Thank you.

tried ProcMon, the events captured are enormous even after I filtered out those I am sure do not matter. It was hard to spot what went wrong if I don't know what to look for.
Which is why I made the suggestion to filter coarsely and wait for a divergence in your two nearly equivalent traces.   <eg>
Otherwise, if you are only looking at one trace but think that there is a possibility that some diagnostics may have been written, filtering with
Operation Is WriteFile is often very handy.  With that filter you can also use the Count occurrences... tool for the number of distinct Path values which were involved.
In fact, now that I have reviewed the symptom description, filtering coarsely might also mean using only the File Access events and filtering with Path Contains Fav   Do that with each of your traces and see where there is a divergence.
Then turn the filter off at that point or perhaps just add Registry events at that point (e.g. use the button but leave your filter for Path in place). Etc.
Good luck
