I have an HP Spectre x 360 touchscreen which I purchased back in September 2018. Flickering problems on the OLED screen began about a year ago but started to become a real problem about six months ago. The screen begins flickering whenever the brightness gets too low for its liking or if the screen turns off and then on again, whether to start a game or to save power after I haven't touched it for five minutes because I was reading something on screen. When displaying bright white backgrounds like Reddit's website or the task manager, I can dim the screen to 60% before it starts flickering like crazy, but for applications with darker interfaces, like Discord, I can only dim it to 90% before that happens. While flickering, the computer also burns whatever I was looking at onto the screen.
I can normally resolve this problem by making sure my screen brightness is at 100% and then blindly trying to click on my always-open settings tab at the bottom, as the brightness normally brings the OLED screen back to normal.
I'd like to find a permanent solution to this, as it's causing major eye strain to keep my screen that bright at all times. I also know that the problem is likely to get even worse if I can't find a permanent solution now. I made sure to update my Intel and Nvidia drivers, so it isn't a driver problem.
Thank you all in advance.
