    Chrome Help

    Hey guys, I seem to be having an issue with Chrome at the moment and was wondering if anyone can help me at all? It flickers every minute or so, and I've tried to sort it out myself, I've reset it to the default setting, cleaned chrome through the settings, turned off any extensions I use, cleared the cookies & data, uninstalled/reinstalled but it hasn't helped. Opening an incognito tab doesn't have this flickering issue so I have no idea what's going on.

    Any advice is much appreciated!

    Turn off hardware acceleration and see if that helps.

    Chrome > Settings > Advanced > Uncheck Use hardware acceleration

    Be sure to completely close all open Chrome browsers afterwards.

    If it works restart your PC and try turning it back on afterwards and see if it clears. I had a problem like this before and it fixed it.

    That didn't help, however the good news is I've sorted it out now, for some reason when my background image cycled to a new one, that was the cause of the flickering. Thanks for the advice though.

    Yeah, I had assumed it wasn't a hardware issue as only Chrome was flickering, guess it was an update to Chrome itself /shrug
