The only time I have seen this happen and it is off and on is when I am in games. CS:go, ffxiv, diablo. Screen will just flash back for 2-3 seconds then come right back, sometimes my music in the background will go away as well for the short time. I have updated my bios, video card, windows and everything else i can think of. Ran disk check, SFC scan, virus scan.

First what is your PSU?
Next I do the 'Basics'

Download and run SPECCY, copy and paste the first tab to tell us WHAT your idle temps
Download and run MSI Afterburner, run some of the games that crash, what temps are you getting when underload?
Open Computer, get can Air dust out the bunnies and use paint brush on the vents, coolers, fans, etc. (can build up even in a matter of weeks

Did you install all Windows Updates? Including options except BING?
Download and run Slim Drivers, install all the latest updates but you don't need to reboot until you do the last update

Remove whatever AV your using and go to www.filehippo.com and download AVAST! or AVG and do a full system scan
Download Malwarebytes do a full system scan (AV doesn't pick up alot of malware)
Repeat the AV/Malware scans till the system comes up clean.

Let us know the outcomes above.

I ran AVG/malaware, ran slim drivers, took my comp apart and cleaned everything last night. I am still trying to get it to screen flash. It happens randomly, 30mins apart to going a week without it happening.
