Screen Flickers And Goes Blank.
The screen just started to flicker and then go blank. When it comes back on (if it does) it is at the sign in window for the account. Tried changing power settings, but that didn't do anything. Just wondering if it is in the display or something else. I have another display I can put in it or at least try to.
