Solved screen flickering while gaming
hi,
i am using nvidia geforce 520mx gpu on my samsung laptop(i5 2450m processor).while playing medal of honor screen is flickering and becomes green or blue.this flickering doesnt occur when played on discrete graphic card.
i am on latest drivers by nvidia(this issue is there even on old drivers)
so what could be the problem? hardware or drivers?

Did you try re installing direct x ?
Also install the drivers that were first installed with the laptop
Sometimes upgrading there drivers does more harm then good

try the beta driver Nvidia gave you it might be a issue with a driver you can try to re install direct x but if you talked to Nvidia they may have a better option for you

Of the OS or the drivers?
i have directx 11 installed do u want me to re-install it?
You can't re-install directx 11. It's part of the OS.
The
DirectX End User Runtime are updated DX 9.0c files.
Give that a whirl. It can't hurt.

Looks like drivers. Does it happen in other games?
