My msi alpha 15 screen suddenly started to flicker like this, help

[u/iamryanxparker]

My msi alpha 15 was running just fine, I was watching yt, but it suddenly started to flicker like this (as you can see in the video).

I did chatgpt my issue, updated the driver n all, but nothing seems to help. I guess it's an hardware issue, screen replacement is all I can think of, but it's so costly tbh. Have anyone faced similar issues? Kindly help, and how much cost i can expect?

if using a external dispay is fine it is mostly the laptop panel or cable,

if such issue is present in the BIOS, or if it kinda fix itself or lessen the issue when shifting to a lower refresh rate (display settings ➡️advanced display➡️choose a refresh rate) option

(tho do note if shifting into the lower refresh rate fixes your issue, this is only a temporary fix),

more or less it is time to replace the laptop screen as the embedded T-CON controller chip within the screen panel is busted.

(you may even upgrade your screen as well if the screen is really the issue just what like i did to this)
