MSI GS60-2PC Screen flicker and horizontal black lines issue

After about 2 weeks of using my GS60, I began to notice that the screen sometimes flickered, and on other occasions horizontal black lines would appear. I have updated my GTX driver to the latest version, and I haven't been able to find any help on the net. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Hi!!! I'm Manuel from Argentina. I bought a MSI GS60 in miami 5 months ago, and... I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!! sometimes mi screen is flashing and appeared horizontal lines (blacks).
There's no solution for this problem? it's a very expensive laptop.
I hope someone can help.
greetings from Argentina!!

X300 partial screen flicker and solid colored lines

Hello all. Just opened my X300 tonight to find the lower-left quadrant of the screen flickering and some colored lines in the upper left-quadrant. The right half of the screen is viewable but pixelated. Anyone know if this is fixable? Loose cables, inverter?
thanks.
Solved!

How do I get rid of random screen flicker and black screen when using a late 2013 Mac Pro with a 4k Samsung 55" Display?

I have a new Mac Pro late 2013 and a 55" 4k Samsung display connected using an HDMI cable. For the most part the display is amazing, however, I get occasional screen flicker and black outs. Can anyone help? Could I possibly have a bad video card?

4K displays take more than half the bandwidth of a ThunderBolt Bus. So you may get better results if you are careful to place them on their own Bus. This article has the explanation of which port is using which Bus:

Adapter MSI GS60 2PC

Dear forum,
Since I bought my new MSI GS60 2PC laptop I am very happy to say it is a beast of a laptop.
I use it for college and for gaming ofcourse. I live in the Netherlands where i also study.
But now there is something i need to know.. I am very lazy. I disguise it when i have to bring my laptop adapter with me every day. Is there a possibilty you can buy a second adapter? So i can leave one adapter at school.
Thanks in advance and i hope you guys can help me..

Screen flickers and goes black on boot up.

Have an older white MacBook that when I boot up, screen flickers and goes black, MacBook does power on.
Any suggestions?

I am seing a similar issue with a 13" White MacBook.
Powers on ... chimes ... then screen goes blank as if the machine has gone to sleep. Hitting the Return key or the power button wakes it again, but only for two seconds ... and repeat!
Any help gratefully received!

GS60 - Mousepad freezing/crashing and hard drive clicking issue

Hello all!
I'm going to try to put in as much detail as possible, hopefully some kind person here will know what I can do to troubleshoot these issues
I bought an MSI GS60 2PC Ghost notebook a month or two ago and I've been noticing some strange issues.
Occasionally during use, my mousepad will freeze for around 2 seconds and then start back up. What i mean by this is that i'll be swiping my finger and then the cursor will just stop moving for 2 seconds mid-swipe. This seems to happen fairly randomly multiple times a day.
The most annoying part is that the first time it happens after a fresh restart, the mouse seems to lose precision. Meaning that after the first freeze, if i do a quick swipe and stop, the cursor will lag behind a bit and fully stop movement noticeably after I stop moving my finger. It happened while I typed this.
>"REINSTALL YOUR MOUSEPAD DRIVER"
I did, it started happening again. Here's the thing. If I'm also playing music while using the laptop and mousepad, any music I'm playing will temporarily also slow down/ get distorted during that 2 second freeze.
Eventually, the mousepad will just crash altogether and I'll have to restart to get it to work again.
>"ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE NOT HITING THE MACRO TO DISABLE THE MOUSEPAD"
I'm sure. The music issue leads me to think it might be something else, not the mousepad driver. Although I should note this doesn't happen if i connect a USB mouse and use that instead.
I'm also hearing a weird clicking noise every so often. It seems to come from the bottom right hand side of the laptop when facing the keyboard top-down. Like, to the right of the mousepad. Could it be the HDD? It doesn't really bother me too much but it's pretty loud and people in class will often turn around thinking i'm taking a picture of them. It just happened as I typed this as well.
I've tried recording these things but they never happen with the camera rolling.
Anyone have any ideas? I'll shower you with free Steam games if the help you provide ends up fixing the problem.
Thanks in advance :cool:

Turn on the task manager and check if the CPU or HDD is having a high usage while the cursor freeze happens.
Try this:
Go to Control Panel> Hardware and Sound> Power options> change plan settings(choose the one you're using)> Change advance power settings> Processor power management> set 98%, 99% of on both on battery and plugged in.
Clicking sound for HDD is normal if the read and write head is working.
You can run the HD Tune's s.m.a.r.t test and see if there is anything wrong with the HDD, if not, then I think you don't really need to worry about the sound.

Has anyone noticed 9 Horizontal black lines in Nikon V3 NEF files in the shadows?

Has anyone noticed horizontal black lines in Nikon V3 NEF files, as shown in the image. I have opened the image in Aperture and there are no lines, also tried 2 different computers.

The lines are there in the raw data, and not something Adobe is doing.
Here is a screenshot of the central area in RAWDigger raw-analysis software, with things set to stretch the channels much as a high-ISO image would have:
What I can't tell from the images is if these lines are in optical path, like streaks on the sensor, or if they are added by the process that reads the raw data--read pattern noise. It is possible that Aperture would have access to "dust delete data" if such a capability exists for the camera and is interpolating around the artifacts or if there is some other reason Nikon software doesn't show them. I don't know. You may be able to find information online but rest assured it is a camera issue and not an Adobe issue unless you're asking why Adobe software isn't fixing the problems automatically like Aperture must be doing, and I would guess Adobe doesn't have any way to fix sensor anomalies that aren't more than 1 pixel in size--single hot or dead pixels.
Unless Nikon can replace or service the camera to remove such things, I don't know what else to suggest.

When I enter time machine (on Time Capsule) i see the stack of screen shots and the time line. However, when I roll over the mouse pointer, the time line does not activate. The cancel button does not get me out of the app: have to alt cmd esc. Ideas?

I have never seen it but then I run SL which is much more reliable than Lion..

Can you help me fix my screen? It randomly has a bluish tint, bad resolution and horizontal flashing lines

Hi all,
It's a 15" 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo MBP running on Leopard 10.5.8, bought spring 2008.
About a couple of weeks ago, my screen started randomly switching to a strange blue / purple tint along with a bad resolution (can't really read text on screen) and flashing horizontal lines in the background. It started worrying me given I'm working with it all the time and am hoping for this machine to hold on for a few more months until I can buy a new one.
It would happen randomly for a few minutes at a time and then revert back to normal screen.
I found a lot of references to a similar problem in a few threads such as this one:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1456983?tstart=0
My screen has gone strange again now and isn't reverting back to normal so far even after I tried restarting it. It was normal for 2 min only ans then back to bluish. I tried all the display fixes indicated in the threads but none of them work and I'm not exactly sure my issue is the same given I can still see the tint and horizontal lines in particular if the screen saver goes on, and the resolution on screenshots I've seen of other people having blue tint screen issues seems to be normal (as in text is legible).
Any ideas on how to fix it? Do you think it might be more of a software or hardware problem..? Would it help if I try upgrading my Mac OS?
Thank you very much for your time

Thanks a lot for the reply, I was worried would say that outright. Screen just only reverted back to normal after a couple of hours. As you said probably best to bring it in for diagnosis, I'll try to do that asap though of course I'm nowhere neaar any AASP at the moment.

Screen Flicker and Glitch on 24" iMac, Early 2009

For a while now, my iMac has been having somewhat random display glitches, flickers, freezes, and kernel panics that can only be fixed by shutting down the computer.
Most of these screen glitches go like this: The display flickers black quickly, letting me know that an issue is going to arise. The issues that could happen are as follows:
A blue line glitch (very common)
a random artifact glitch (somewhat uncommon)
a freeze-up (very common)
a kernel panic
Let me describe these:
There are several types of "display glitches" I've been experiencing. Some of them involve random artifacts that are randomly displayed and seem to be hovering over whatever is going on on the screen–for example, once I was browsing Facebook and the glitch occurred, so a square of my browser screen was sort of cut out and stuck on the screen above everything else going on. The issue wasn't fixed until I restarted the computer. This glitch, however, wouldn't show up in screenshots. These are somewhat less common because it seems if this one happens then it either gets worse very fast and there are random pieces of my active windows all over the screen or it freezes the computer up entirely, or even results in a kernel panic.
Another "display glitch" that is far more common is a sort of line glitch. It's very strange: blue lines will outline random shapes and things all over the screen. Pictures on my browser appear distorted and videos look VERY weird. The dock has the lines and random blue pixels as well. The desktop background appears distorted. This glitch often starts with the screen flickering black and the various blue lines appearing. The lines change shape as the objects on the screen move around.The issue doesn't appear in screenshots but I documented it by taking crude videos and pictures on my phone that give examples.
Here's a link to my video of a video about a nonrelated screen glitch. I was actually searching Google for a solution but it turned out to be unhelpful, but since the screen glitch happened to be going on I decided to record it as an example. Notice how the blue lines move with the video...
Here are some pictures:
This next screenshot looks a little creepy with the armored polar bear–it's a LoL build on Mobafire. CLICK HERE TO SEE WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE:
---NOTE: My computer actually JUST screen glitched and froze up completely, at which point I had to shut it down and reboot. Luckily the post was saved! Just in case you were wondering how often these things occur.
This issue is getting worse and worse. I'm not sure what triggers it, but it seems like graphics-intensive programs like 3D games can trigger it–especially, it seems, when I toggle on and off fullscreen. It looks like it could be a graphics card issue, because if it was a software problem it would seem like it should show up in the screenshots. It's sort of an underwhelming graphics card, but meh. My mom is having a panic attack and backing up everything on the computer and we're thinking about just reinstalling OS X altogether.

Lion causes your system to use more resources so it will run hotter. If you haven't cleaned you iMac's dust out:
As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
You are now in a perfect position to do a

Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.

Why is my 2007 HP V17 monitor screen flickering and going black?

I have an old 2007 HP V17 monitor attached with a VGA cable to an early 2008 Macbook running on OS 10.6.8 software via a DVI- mini connector (this is also my desktop computer).
About 6 months ago, the HP display started going white and sometimes gray for a few seconds before the image would return, and a couple of times I had to unplug it and restart the Macbook before it came back. I followed Apple's instructions for testing whether the problem was in the computer (= resetting the system by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC), but the computer tested okay. I then purchased a new VGA cable and DVI-mini connector, but the problem persisted.
Today the HP screen suddenly went black (first time going black) and stayed black. The power button stayed lit and if I pressed the Volume or Auto buttons, the "Volume" etc. message boxes did appear, so the device's backlight is apparently working and not burnt out (unless the backlight has nothing to do with the message boxes showing up, which for all I know may be the case). However, the Desktop showed up only on the Macbook.
I checked all the connections, removed the DVI connector and plugged it back into the Macbook several times, but the HP screen stayed black, so I removed the DVI connector in order to type this message on the Macbook. Then, as I was writing this, I decided to plug it back into the Macbook one more time--and sure enough, the display is back!
I love this monitor, which is the perfect size and ergonomic height for my setup, so I'd hate to have to replace it. Can anyone tell me
Given the information above, what's the probable reason for the flickering and going to black? If it's the computer, what could it be? Can I solve this problem myself? (See above; I couldn't find any other ways to test the computer in the Apple articles database.)
If not, could a monitor this old be repaired?
If so, how much would repairing it cost, since buying a new monitor that I probably wouldn't like as much would cost upwards of $300?
Thanks so much for any advice out there!

Hello @turtlewiz,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that your HP V17 Monitor has gone black and is not displaying anything. I am providing you with some steps for you to try below:
Step 1. Unplug the power cord from the back of the monitor and the wall
Step 2. Hold the power button down for at least one minute
Step 3. Plug the power cord back into the monitor and then into the wall outlet (not a power bar or surge protector)
Step 4. Press the Menu button on the monitor
Step 5. Navigate to the Factory Reset option and select it
If the issue persists after this you can try the monitor on another computer to see if it continues. If it does it appears to be a physical issue and I think it would be best if you contact HP Technical Support for repair options.
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

When I move my mac the screen flicker and must be rebooted

when I move my mac the screen flickers and goes blank then must be rebooted. Crap

Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
And sorry to report that OSX is more Widows like than ever, but….
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.
