Hi,
Could you please post the full model name of the laptop, like A5xx-xx, in the meantime, are you using the laptop with full Brightness or reduced Brightness?

You have to tell the model name, like AN515-xx, please remove the SNID number by clicking Edit button, it's the personal identity of your laptop, try reinstalling the display adapter driver, download it from Acer support site and install.

@brummyfan2 my laptop with acer nitro 5 515-44R95Q with ryzen 4600h and 1650ti nvidia graphics card ..how ever it is having screen flickers i noticed that it started having these fliclers when amd drivers installed ...what i can do about it?
Hi,
Are you trying this driver from Acer Driver support or trying to install the driver from AMD? If you are trying the driver from AMD, uninstall it, download and try the driver version in my picture.

@brummyfan2 i tried both drivers..actually i first took my laptop to the acer service center they replaced my display..but nothing changed ..then iinstalled linux diaplay works fine with no errors..nothing flickers when using linux ..then when i switched back to the windows it occurs againg ...i searched every where for a solution still found nothing ..what i notuced is that when i re install windows it worked fine but when i updated the drivers from the acer page when i updated the amd drivers thaen it occurs again
How about trying to use without updating drivers and wait for Windows update to update the driver? If you are not happy with that, you could try a third party software to update the drivers, I normally recommend third party software but your issue may get solved by it.

@brummyfan2 i did try the windows update..results are same..still have this annoying flicker
It could be a hardware fault, like loose display cable or incompatible panel, I think you have to get help from Acer Support centre.
