Hi, I hope you're doing well. There seems to be a minor problem, but I'm struggling to identify the cause. Each time the Windows 10 media controls appear on the screen, it briefly turns black for a short period. Let me know if you need further help.

Do you happen to own a free-sync GPU and screen? Your single machine linked to a Samsung RU9000 tends to avoid enabling free-sync, often causing flickering or blackouts during media overlays in Windows.

The primary screen you're using is the one that supports G-Sync, and it seems to be showing a blackout because the overlay appears on it. Uncertain about the exact cause.

You're experiencing a problem after updating to 1080p at 240Hz, which caused an issue with ULMB. It seems the change triggered a compatibility problem.

Have you attempted turning off ULMB to check for improvements?

It looks like ULMB was the cause, but this feature has become a major turning point for me—I can't play without it now.
