Flicker after installing latest NVIDIA 8600M GT driver

[end0ftime]

So I just recently upgraded to Windows 7. After installing all the necessary drivers provided by Windows Update, It was time to install the one provided for the Graphics Card. Ever since I've got the driver set, there seems to be this flicker on the screen that tends to show up every few seconds.

It's really annoying.. can anybody help?

Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

Having the latest driver is not always the best solution.

Have you tried rolling back to the previous driver from within Device Manager or downloading one from the manufacturer's driver page?

Yes and every time I do that it goes back to Standard VGA. -__-

try changing tto 50 Hz 60 Hz 75 Hz it may get rid of the flicker , you will find it , right mouse desktop Screen resolution / advanced settings and under the monitor tab

The only option available is 60. Would I be able to install an older version of the driver?

The screen flickers even with the driver provided through Windows Update.. =/

maybe you have a lose connection with the cable try wiggling it and see if it makes it worse or better or maybe your gpu may be damaged
