Hi

I work for Dell's Social Media Team and would like to you help with your question. Please find steps to resolve your issue.

Change the display data clock frequency to match the frequency of your computer graphics card. If you see a vertical flickering bar, use Frequency control to minimize the bars. This is a coarse adjustment.

Please find the projector manual for more information.

Write back in case if you have any questions.
