Second monitor flickering in certain spots constantly
-
I had been using F.lux for a while without issue, but I now have a major problem. My second monitor works fine when F.lux is not active, but when is activates / is active certain pixels will flicker a darker color for a fraction of a second. This flickering starts at the top portion of the monitor and works its way down. Each flicker area takes up maybe 1/5 or 1/6 of the screen. When the flicker reaches the bottom, it starts over again at the top. This whole process takes a few seconds and repeats endlessly. I didn't change anything other than installing a color profile on my main monitor. Uninstalling this color profile does nothing. Does anybody know what's going on or how I can fix this?

Wow. How did you install the profile? If you re-install a different one what happens? Can you check driver versions? And I'd love to know more about your system / GPU / OS version / monitor.

Sorry it took so long to reply. I used this tutorial for adding the color profile. It should only have affected my main monitor (it did). I'm using AMD Catalyst version 15.7. I did not have an issue before when I had the same driver version installed. I currently have an R9 280X and am running windows 7. My main monitor is the Asus VG248QE, but the monitor I am having problems on is the Samsung Syncmaster BX2450. It's a bit of an old monitor, but I never had any problems in the past. I don't know what the problem is. I can try to take a video of it if you want. I'm not sure how well it will turn out on camera, though.

Well, you'll probably not read this, but the problem seems to have fixed itself. Hurray!
