    Did you change any resolution settings recently? Have you tried starting Windows in safe mode? Basically, keep tapping F8 when you boot the laptop until you get a black and white screen of text. Choose to boot in Safe Mode.

    I've seen that sort of a pattern when changing resolution. The resolution upon startup is around 800x600, possibly less. The flickering you see could be the resolution change to your OS's startup screen. At least it's working fine.

    What refresh rate are you using?
