There may be several reasons for your laptop screen flickering:-

Loose or damaged cable connection: A faulty cable connecting the screen to the motherboard may cause flickering.
Outdated or incompatible drivers: If your computer’s display drivers are outdated or incompatible, it may lead to screen flickering issues.
Faulty screen or hardware: A faulty screen or internal hardware component can also cause flickering.
Overheating: Overheating the laptop can cause the screen flickering issue.
Software issues: Some software or apps may cause some problems, leading to screen flickering.
Incorrect refresh rate: An incorrect refresh rate setting may also result in a flickering screen issue.

You can start by checking your HDMI, Display-Port, or USB-C cables. Ensure that the cables are securely connected to both the monitor and the laptop. Make sure that the cable is fully tightened and it doesn’t look or feel loose. This applies to all cable types, which can become loose for various reasons. Plug in your system to an external monitor to check if the issue reoccurs. If the problem does not occur on the external display, it may be due to a hardware issue with the laptop’s screen.

Next is to make sure that the graphic card driver is update. Outdated drivers may cause incompatibility, leading to screen flickering problems. Regularly updating drivers ensures optimal performance and a flicker-free experience.

Follow these instructions to update drivers on your system.

Hit the Windows key and in the search box type Device Manager. Now, click on Open to launch it.

Double-click on the drivers, ensure that any drivers need any updates, and make a note of them.
Now, go to the manufacturer’s website and download the driver that suits your system specifications.
Intel or AMD or NVIDIA

The .exe files will be downloaded to your system. Execute the files by double-clicking on them to install them on your system.

Further if you have installed any new application then uninstalling recently installed apps will fix potential software conflicts or incompatibilities. These issues may arise due to poorly optimized apps, causing the display to malfunction.

Also to note overheating can cause hardware issues so, routinely check your laptop’s temperature to ensure it is not overheating. Make sure you clean any dust or debris from the vents and fans to improve airflow.

Just some additional information for you, first it would help if you told us the exact Aspire Z24 AIO PC model that you have got😎? As there are allot of version of the Aspire Z24 AIO like Z24-1650 or Z24-1700 etc etc. Screen flickering could be because of numerous things like the eDP cable and its plug pins that plug in at the mainboard or screen which have had their data pins or cables shorted or damaged and its arching, and that is why you get the screen flickering. Best is to take your Z24 AIO to a technician and get them to narrow down your flickering problem and get them to fix it. Good luck.
