graphics problem after windows intel display driver update

[NSpra]

Hello.

Recently a driver update was installed on my windows 10 system:

"Intel Corporation - Display - 2/28/2018 12:00:00 AM - 23.20.16.4973"

Since then I've noticed a problem with windows that repeatedly temporarily turn black when I hover the mouse

over them and then they return to normal. I've noticed this in multiple unrelated programs, so I suspect it's an issue

with the recently installed display driver update.

Is there an easy way to resolve this issue or should I just try uninstalling the display driver?

I've included a few screenshots here to illustrate what it looks like when the problem occurs:

I might have multiple instances of the geogebra app open on sceen:

Then I hover my mouse over the bottom-left window and it goes black for a while (a few seconds or depending

on whether the mouse is hovering over the window):

Greetings and thanks in advance for any suggestions on how to resolve this, Niek

Hello.

Thanks for your help. I've attached the txt file generated by the intel system support utility.

Yesterday when I wanted to create a screenshot of the problem it was occurring when I opened the

first few instances of the app but then when I had four of them tiled on the screen it wouldn't occur

anymore, so I've created a mock-up in paint to show what it looks like when it does occur.

If it occurs again (perhaps after a reboot or in another app/program) I'll try the Ctrl-Alt-F8 combination

(restoring graphics default settings) to see if that makes a difference.

greetings, Niek

Hello,

Sorry for the delayed response. So far the problem hasn't occurred again and I didn't try reverting the driver version back from version 4973 to 4944 yet. It seems the problem doesn't affect most software,

so it can be hard to test solutions when the problem isn't easily replicated.

Eventually I think the chances are likely that the problem will crop up again at some point,

so I will be able to experiment some more and see if changing the driver completely resolves it.

I will get back to this thread then to report the results, but it might take a while.

greetings, Niek

My problem with this update 23.20.16.4973 is that today is 9/15/18 and I have the latest driver from Intel already: 24.20.100.6286, but I don't understand why windows 10 is still trying to push this outdated update to me. Even though it seems i don't have to install it, the reminder is outthere. can you guys pls talk to microsoft to disable such reminder? thx
