Start Button and Hidden Icons cause screen Flickering
I have a problem that has just started over the last week or so. If I hover my mouse over the start button on my Windows 10 machine, the entire screen flickers. I am still able to click on the links on the toolbar most of the time. Sometimes when I click on a link on the toolbar it will "refresh" the toolbar. When I try to "show hidden icons" in the bottom right of the screen, it will also "refresh" the toolbar. All of this means that I cannot access these hidden icons or use the start menu. I can use shortcut keys to accomplish most of the tasks that I want to, but this is starting to become a problem. I have re-installed my graphics drivers and that doesn't seem to have helped. I have tried running SFC /scannow, but it fails at about 28%. I have tried to run chkdsk /f and it fails at about 17%. I have tried to reset my computer, and it fails at about 17%. I am running out of things to try. Does anyone know anything about what this could be and if so, how to fix it?
Thanks,
Scott
