Hi, I own this PC for roughly two weeks. I used it for two weeks without any issues. Now when I power it on and log into my Windows 10 64-bit account, the screen flickers in and out. The taskbar also keeps toggling on and off. It feels like Windows is restarting itself whenever the display changes. I can’t interact with the system except through the sign-in/out menu, which stops the shutdown process. It might be a virus, but only the malwarebyte download I’ve had appears to be involved. It could be interfering with some drivers—maybe someone needs help fixing it. Thanks for the info.

I'd check for the latest bios information. A CMOS reset might be needed, and it could also relate to a power supply issue.
