Hey! I've noticed some issues lately that I'm struggling to fix. Over the past few weeks, two of my monitors connected through DisplayPort have started flashing all black and then back to normal in sync. This only happens when you move your mouse; it doesn't occur when the mouse stays still. The third monitor, which uses an HDMI to DVI adapter, is working fine. Key details: the black flashes are triggered by mouse movement, not by any software or settings. I've tried updating my BIOS, refreshing the firmware on the main display, switching from Windows 10 to 11, power cycling everything, and even leaving it unplugged overnight. Powering it back up resolved the issue temporarily. It seems more frequent when the PC wakes from sleep. So far, I'm at a loss for a permanent solution. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
